Frequently Asked Questions
When should my child see a psychologist?
Seek help if your child shows persistent behavioral changes, withdraws socially, has sleep problems, is very anxious, refuses to go to school, or has severe tantrums. Early intervention is important, as problems can grow larger over time.
How does therapy with children work?
Child therapy uses play, drawing, and creative activities as forms of expression, since children often can't verbalize feelings like adults. Parents are typically involved in the process, and the psychologist may collaborate with school and daycare.
Should parents participate in their child's treatment?
Yes, parental involvement is usually an important part of treatment. The psychologist holds separate parent sessions and can provide guidance on how best to support your child at home. For teens, the degree of parental involvement may vary.
