Parenting is hard. You don’t have to figure this out alone.

Tantrums that don’t make sense. School refusal. Big emotions after a long day. Worry that keeps them up at night. Meltdowns after school. Pulling away from friends. If you’re wondering whether you should have noticed sooner, you’re not alone. Most parents feel the same way.

  • Parent involvement

    You're part of the process. Regular check-ins and guidance so progress continues at home.

    Therapy is tailored to your child's developmental stage — from early childhood through pre-teen years.

A very helpful session right after a very traumatic experience for my 10 yo. Miss Lisa has a very pragmatic approach. She makes my son (and I) felt confident that he is in great hands to overcome what has happened.

The session was productive and being able to connect with the therapist prior to the meeting was just what was needed to be able to align with some of those things that are being a struggle in a foundation, but I wanted to make sure that I acknowledge that the professionalism and the backing from the therapist is much helpful.

Nice way of getting to know my daughter. She was allowed to listen and speak about her feelings while feeling assured that anything she says is ok and only used to help her. She especially enjoyed the Lego playtime. Thank you so much.

Frequently asked questions

If your child is struggling with big emotions, behavior changes, school avoidance, or withdrawal from friends and activities, therapy can help.

You don't need a diagnosis to start. Many parents reach out simply because something feels off — and that instinct is worth following.

Yes. Therapy sessions are private and protected under HIPAA, even for minors. Your child's therapist will not share session details without consent, except in cases involving safety.

Parents receive regular updates on progress and goals without compromising your child's trust in the therapeutic relationship.

Yes — parent involvement is a core part of our approach. Your child's therapist will provide regular check-ins, progress updates, and strategies you can use at home.

For younger children, parents are often part of sessions directly. For older kids, your therapist will guide you on the right level of involvement.

Every child is different. Some children see meaningful progress in 8–12 sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support.

Your child's therapist will set clear goals from the start and track progress so you always know where things stand.

Yes. We accept most major insurance plans and verify your coverage before your first appointment. Many families pay as little as $0–$30 per session.

If you're unsure about your coverage, our team can check your benefits in minutes.

Yes. We offer comprehensive ADHD evaluations for children, conducted by licensed specialists. Evaluations include clinical interviews, standardized assessments, and a detailed report.

If your child is already diagnosed, we also provide ongoing therapy and support for managing ADHD symptoms.

We work with children from early childhood through adolescence. Our therapists have age-specific training and tailor their approach to your child's developmental stage.

Whether your child is 5 or 15, we match them with a therapist experienced in their age group.

This is very common — and it's okay. Many children feel nervous or resistant at first. Our therapists are skilled at building trust and making sessions feel safe and even enjoyable.

We also coach parents on how to introduce therapy in a way that reduces resistance. Most kids warm up within the first few sessions.
