How can your child benefit from therapy?

Therapy is one of the most potent healing arts we can experience, regardless of our age. Therapy addresses the root of human suffering - the convoluted, “problematic ” thinking / imagination within our mind.

How does therapy heal?

Psychotherapy is the art of healing the mind through a change in perspective. Children tend to change their perspectives in a non- conscious way. This requires unique techniques and diagnostic tools like the RATC (Roberts Apperceptional Test for Children) or the Roberts II, and others.

What can I expect from enrolling my child in therapy?

Although results can greatly vary from one child to another, Child Therapy can help in many valuable ways, including:

• Overcoming depression and anxiety
• Improving attitude and behavior at school and home
• Improve self-esteem
• Decreasing irritability and aggression
• Improve school performance
