Working with young children under the age of twelve is a wonderful opportunity to help your child develop a positive self image and an ability to recognize and communicate their feelings at a point in their lives when this is natural and sets them up to lead successful and fulfilling lives. I have worked with children in clinics and schools and in my private practice office since 1993.

Children tend to react to life's circumstance depending upon their stage of development. Their ability to verbally express their fears and frustrations, and to problem solve is limited. Often, their fears and anxiety become evident in their behavior. Phyllis uses specific play techniques to help children, together with their parents' participation, to develop confidence, learn to communicate, overcome frustration, avoid control battles, build impulse control, develop social skills, express themselves, and meet their ultimate potential.

While i do have a background working with children individually, as a family therapist, I now work with children in the context of working with the whole family, and i find that more effective. With children in general, and with young children in particular, i have found that children are often responding to family issues. And, whatever the issues, how their parents respond has a a greater impact on helping children cope than what a therapist does. So, helping to resolve family issues, or helping parents to find better ways to cope with a child's problems is often the most useful way to help children.

Different approaches are used to help children and adolescents who are experiencing difficulties with emotional or behavioral problems. Psychotherapy helps children and adolescents with emotional support, conflict resolution, understanding feelings and problems, and trying out new solutions to existing issues. They must feel comfortable, safe and understood in sessions. Creating a trusting space makes it possible for the people to express thoughts and feelings. My different psychotherapy approaches include playing, writing, drawing, building, and pretending, as well as talking. The style is chosen based on the presenting problems, history, level of development, ability to engage.

Young children are not little adults but yet they are whole people. Children process things differently but also exhibit good resilience in many situations. In working with young children, it is especially important to work with them where they are at and in ways that allow them to relate tot he journey that is being made. When this is successful, the child not only is able to find wholeness and peace in the present but have a firm foundation for finding this in the future. A dimension of working with a child is working with the adults that are significant in that child's life. Christopher looks forward to this journety together with you.

Your child or children may be suffering for reasons that are unclear. Are your children constantly angry and oppositional? Are they often hyper? Are your children doing poorly in school? As parents, do you fear you won't be able to help your child with his or her "anger management." Using empathy and sensitivity, our professionals work individually with both children, adolescents and with parents with the goal to ending the problem behavior or lowering a child's anxieties.
