By becoming engaged and working with a solution-focused therapist, you will begin to uncover your own or your family's potential. You will begin to engage in a life that is worth celebrating. Re: children and adolescents, they often have behavioral issues that appear confusing. This includes ADHD, unresolved stress, unsupported grief, addiction/recovery issues. Families of all types can have these ongoing struggles. Conflict resolution is paramount between family members. In addition, counseling the parents re: their own depression, anxiety or personality issues is paramount to completing the cycle of ongoing family distress.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in New York, NY provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in New York build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
