Child Counseling

Why is my child sad? Why is my teen so withdrawn and angry?

Hopeless, overwhelmed and anxious are the feelings many parents report when they see that their child is not living the life they deserve to have. As parents, there is nothing worse than knowing that your child is suffering and feeling ill equipped to help. At Inspire Professional Counseling, we understand that feeling and offer parents peace of mind as we work with you to help your child get back to enjoying a happy and carefree life. Counseling for kids offers a safe and confidential medium for helping your child get through the obstacles of life.

Our child counseling utilizes an eclectic approach that combines the top evidence based clinical interventions, cognitive behavioral, trauma focused and play and art therapy interventions while embedding an empathic and culturally sensitive framework, partnering with our clients to understand their needs and establish goals to successful resolution. In many situations we are able to partner with other professionals in your child’s life to provide a comprehensive approach to problem resolution.

Setting up an initial consultation appointment with one of our therapist allows our clients to get the best feel for how therapy will work and how we approach your unique situation.
