Individual therapy services provide the opportunity to evaluate each child and family’s individual characteristics, strengths, and challenges in order to develop a customized treatment program.
Does any of this sound familiar?….Tried deep breaths. Tried offering help. Tried rewards. Tried gentle parenting. Tried consequences. Nothing is working! These are words we often hear when parents come to us looking for help. You are not alone.
We often hear from parents that are exhausted from repeating themselves over and over again, or trying everything they can to help their child calm cope, without results. Other parents want to support their child with connecting with friends, or functioning within the school environment.
Rates of child and adolescent mental health concerns have dramatically increased over the last 10-15 years. Life is hard. Parenting is hard. Meeting our kids’ needs in a rapidly changing world of technology is hard. Being a parent in a sea of information, conflicting advice, and comparison is hard. We are here to help you navigate it all with judgement free collaboration, evidence-based strategies, and humor.
At Peace Within, we play, we jump, we draw, we chill, we do ALL the fidgets! We find whatever each individual needs to feel safe and comfortable enough to express themselves fully and be open to growth and change. We offer a friendly, welcoming, space of acceptance for children and families to nurture their strengths. We embrace the challenge of discovering the “why” behind big emotions and behaviors to guide your child towards healthier coping. We firmly believe “The world needs minds of all kinds” and we can get through tough stuff together. We strive to ensure that each individual that walks through our doors gets to know and love their own mind and body, while discovering the resources they have to overcome challenges and live their best lives. Nothing is a greater privilege than joining others on this journey to growth and healing. Whether we are supporting one through grief and trauma, just a bit of rough patch, or learning to navigate life with Autism, Anxiety, ADHD, OCD, or Sensory Integration difficulties, we are in it together and we can do hard things!
