Child Psychologists and Child Therapists in Hubbard, OR.

I have completed play therapy coursework and I utilize non-directive play therapy techniques with children. This approach allows the child to have control in the therapy room which helps the child develop control outside of the room. If the child needs another approach I adapt to that child. EMDR can be helpful in helping some children resolve traumatic events in their lives.

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.

A basic tenet that I bring into the counseling room is that there is no such thing as a bad kid, but rather a kid who is behaving badly due to maladaptive circumstances beyond his or her control. A child's misguided attempt to attract attention through misbehavior is frequently punished rather than recognized as a cry for help. I will work together with you and your child to identify the underlying causes of your child's acting out behaviors, and help you develop parenting and communication skills that will allow you and your child to communicate and discuss fears, concerns and needs more safely and effectively.
