Child Therapy

Many children today struggle to manage their emotions, behaviors, frustration tolerance and social relationships.

At Sarah Whitney Family and Child Therapy, we have one goal: help kids enjoy childhood.

Therapy Can Help Kids:

Express Emotions in a Healthy Way
Manage and Regulate Feelngs
Process Difficult Experiences
Foster Connection with Loved Ones
Improve Self-Esteem and Confidence

We integrate approaches and tailor treatment to each family's individual needs.

Nervous System Regulation

Often children do not have the cognitive development to express and manage emotions verbally. Luckily we can support their nervous system, through movement and breath.

Attachment

In a world where children see as many screens as they do people, we foster connection with attachment-based interventions.

Skill Building

We teach children social, emotional regulation, and communication skills that make them feel competent when life is challenging.

Family Systems

Children can not be separated from the system they live in, we incorporate family therapy to ensure families experience lasting change outside of the therapy room.

Bibliotherapy

Through stories, children explore feelings, build empathy, and develop coping skills. We hand select books that create opportunities for social-emotional learning.
