The book, "Raising Healthy Children and Teenagers" by Dr. Robert Puff Raising Healthy Children and Teenagers is one of the most important things that we will ever do in life. How they turn out, how life goes for them, whether they experience joy and happiness because of their inner strength and resources, or struggle with life because of inadequate coping skills is largely in our hands. In this book we discuss three main areas that are crucial to raising healthy children: how you treat your children, what you expose your children to, and what you model for them. These three areas directly affect the overall well-being, behavior, and mental health of your children as well as pave the way for th....

Dr. Pham utilizes play therapy (i.e, arts, sandtray) to help the child express his/her emotions through the art of playing at their own pace to explore and resolve any emotional issues. She will also assist you to have better communication and to be able to understand your child's struggles while you're adjusting to new parenting roles with the changes in your child.

If your child is having behavioral problems at home or at school, it can be challenging to say the least. If he or she does not follow directives, talks back, has temper tantrums, is verbally or physically aggressive, is defiant in general, or is withdrawn from family and friends, I can help - even if you think you have tried everything and nothing has worked. I will teach you how to utilize positive parenting techniques so that your child’s behavior will improve and your family can experience more enjoyable home life.

For about 7 years I only worked with children in my practice. The rest of my practice has been split working with adults and with kids. With kids, its all about their instinct and comfort. If they sense that the therapist isn't comfortable or experienced with kids, they won't engage in the therapy process. I use a variety of techniques working with children, depending on their age. For smaller children, art therapy and play therapy can be very successful for a variety of reasons. The main reason is that it takes the focus off of them and they feel more at ease to talk and be open. For older children who can handle "talk therapy", using simpler language can be effective.

I work with 12 year olds and up. For young teens we use games, pillow fights, exercise, drawing, any medium that would make it more comfortable for the teen to open and share. When beneficial, I bring the parents into the end of the session so that they know what the teen is needing in their assistancxe with that next week. Art and journaling are a significant part of homework to allow the youth to express and reduce their emotional overload.
