Many times, child therapists overdo the family system in their quest to seek effective solutions for emotional, learning or behavioral concerns with young children. And many times doctors overpathologize issues that shouldn’t be medicated necessarily. This leaves parents wondering what is the best route for their child? Introducing brainwave optimization technology. A fast, effective, natural, and less expensive way to allow your child's brain to make the optimizing changes it desires to make---on its own! Without any external force, opinion, medication, diagnostic, etc. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com or 877-606-6161.

Children and adolescents can be challenging when it comes to therapy, as they are changing and evolving into small humans. Counseling and therapy can assist children in identifying healthy strategies and coping skills to develop their personality, as well as bonding and building a relationship with peers. We can assist your child in identifying a sense of self, focusing on healthy skills.

Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern

Available for Online Therapy

With over 10 years of experience working with children and teens, I've learned how to make them feel understood and empowered to make good choices for themselves. Although different from the problems grown-ups might experience, children and teens still experience BIG emotions and deal with real problems that they need help with. Therapy can help your child or teen express themselves in a positive way through healthy coping skills. I will provide empathy and validation and provide practical tools for dealing with their mental health issues. With kids and teens, I love to incorporate play and art therapy and creative outlets that work for them.

One of the things that makes our practice special is that we use the whole family as part of the process to help young children reach their goals.

We provide a relaxed and comfortable environment for children and their families to explore their issues and work together towards a more happy life.
