Are you grieving important losses? Do you wish to tame your inner critic? You may be in pain or feel alone because important family, friends, or pets died. You may be questioning why you are still grieving or worry about overwhelming others with your grief. Or you may be in pain because you blame yourself for being not good enough. Our inner critics are often voices we have learned from family, friend, or society, especially when you have had to prove yourself as a person with marginalized identities (person of color, woman, immigrant/international student, queer/trans, low income).

In sessions, we will utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma Focused CBT to support your child in reducing negative or anxious thoughts and related behaviors.
Growing up is hard and sometimes tough to navigate, for kids and parents! Between early childhood and young adulthood, there are many challenges that children face on a daily basis. Often times, daily tasks and transitions bring on stress and sometimes depression and anxiety. Events ranging from separation to assault can provoke traumatic stress in the youngest child. This stress may lead to behaviors like isolating, self harm, crying, bed wetting, refusing to participate in activities or acting out. Your child has their own way of coping with change, which may negatively affect their relationships with teachers, friends or parents.
