He is very upstanding my son seems to really enjoy speaking with him
Parent of a 12 year old · Oct 9, 2026

I am a compassionate and dedicated therapist with a specialization in working with children and their families. With over 20 years of experience, I am passionate about helping young individuals navigate the challenges of growing up, including emotional struggles, behavioral concerns, trauma, and developmental issues. My approach is rooted in creating a safe and supportive environment where children feel heard, understood, and empowered to express themselves. I utilize a combination of play therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and family therapy techniques to address the unique needs of each child. My goal is to work collaboratively with both the child and their family to build positive coping strategies, enhance emotional resilience, and strengthen communication within the home. I also offer support for parents, providing them with practical tools and strategies to nurture their child's emotional well being and foster a healthy, open relationship. Whether dealing with panic attacks, anxiety, grief, ADHD or trauma, I am here to help your child build the skills they need to thrive in everyday life.
You can talk to your therapist in your first session about which approach would be the best fit for you.

Don is a great therapist. He is the first therapist that my daughter has shared has truly helped with her OCD.
Parent of a 16 year old · Feb 18, 2026
Parents on check-ins, guidance and being part of their child’s care.
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.

Our time with Mr. Donald has been invaluable and the key to our son and family’s success with emotional regulation these past few months. Each session is thoughtful and so helpful. Our son was able to engage each session the longest he had ever been able to thanks to our amazing counselor. We have been provided with numerous tools to help us all succeed and meet our family’s goals in only a few months. A big thank you for everything Mr. Donald! You are a gem!

Mr Donald is an awesome therapist. He engages with our child better than any other therapist has before. Our only regret is that we don’t live local so we can do in person therapy. Mr Donald is the best. Thank you.

Dr. Schroeder has been wonderful for my 9-year-old son. He matches my son's energy perfectly, builds trust without forcing anything, and knows when to dig in versus when to just meet a kid where they are. After just four sessions, we've seen real improvement at home. My son actually thanked me for "loving him enough to put him in therapy." Can't recommend him highly enough.

His ability to connect on the very 1st session.
