I also have experience in behavioral therapy for children and teens using Applied Behavioral Analysis and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
The purpose of therapy is to help you unravel what you want, identify what's holding you back, and make goals to acquire your fullest potential. Sometimes these goals are to seek deeper, more meaningful relationships with others and/or ourselves, become more accomplished in the things that matter most to us, or to manage the pain and discomfort of day-to-day life. If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious/depressed, grieving, or just in need of a change, therapy might be worth pursuing!

Everyone shares the highs of life, but no one really talks about the lows. When we experience a low, it can leave us feeling as if we are not enough, alone, exhausted, defeated or misunderstood. Leaving us to go through the motions and endure the day to day responsibilities, relationships, and/or expectations. This may cause feelings of hopeless or struggle with unwanted thoughts. These feelings are overwhelming and isolating. Isolating in order to protect themselves, to protect others, or to avoid judgement. This is why Enduring Soul was created. To be seen, heard, and supported through your healing, without fear of judgment.

Behavioral Issues Therapists
What happens in therapy for behavioral issues?
No matter the type of therapy, individuals form an alliance with the therapist; that connection is often therapeutic in itself, plus it becomes an instrument of change. Individuals learn to identify situations that are especially troublesome for them and acquire new patterns of thinking and behaving. In therapy for ADHD, one of the most common behavior issues for children, individuals learn how to improve frustration tolerance, control impulsivity, manage attentional focus, and gain skills of self-organisation.
What therapy types help with behavioral issues?
Many types of therapy have been found effective, each targeting one or more areas of dysfunction. Perhaps best-known and most widely tested is cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT), in which individuals learn new behavioral strategies and curb reactivity to frustrating or distressing situations that trigger disruptive behaviour. Anger, anxiety, mood disorders, impulse control problems are commonly addressed in CBT. Family therapy or parent management training is often helpful to reduce parent-child conflict and behavioral difficulties at home.
How long does therapy last for behavioral issues?
Among popular approaches to treating behavioral concerns, CBT is considered a short-term therapy intended to be administered in 15 to 20 weekly sessions. Parent training in behavior management, often used when the underlying cause of behavior issues is ADHD in children under 12, usually occurs in weekly sessions for 8 to 16 weeks. When behavioral issues stem from persistent aggression or defiance, therapy may last for months, and usually targets both children and their parents.
How effective is therapy for behavior issues?
Studies show that therapy for behavior issues in children is highly effective and may prevent the development of antisocial behavior later in life. Family intervention—parent management training or family therapy, both of which involve parents and children together—is considered most effective, notably for children under age 12 who persistently engage in aggressive, defiant, rule-breaking or other disruptive behavior. Whether provided alone or in combination with medication, CBT is highly effective in helping people regulate their emotions, and for people with ADHD, it addresses impulsiveness, hyperactivity and attentional focus.
