Child Psychologists and Child Therapists in Barberton, OH.

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.

I love working with young children and their parents, as behaviors are not yet ingrained, and parents can learn new skills to help manage their child's symptoms. It also helps to learn what is expected developmentally so that parents don't get overly anxious about children meeting expectations. Today's world can be stressful for young children as well, and children also feel the stress that their parents' experience. We can explore coping skills and self-care for parents and children alike. We can also work through communications skills and help children become more emotionally skilled to manage symptoms.

Many therapists share they use play therapy in their practice with children, but have not taken further training on its use in therapy. I am a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor, which means I completed 3 years and 3000 additional hours of practice after licensure, clinical supervision, consistent continued education courses, and significant focus in at least two play therapy evidence based practices. I utilize Child Centered Play Therapy, Filial Therapy, Digital Play Therapy, and Prescriptive Play Therapy to address children's needs in addition to creative arts therapies (Drama Therapy, Art Therapy interventions).
