You don't want your child just to respond to a paid therapist; you ultimately want them to respond to you! I treat children under the age of 12 in tandem with their parents. My goal isn't just to connect to the child, but to connect the parent(s) to the child. We will work on emotions identification and connecting deeply with everyone in therapy. I utilize exercises involving active listening, reflection, and age-appropriate expression. In early years, this is done through play, and then gradually transitions to verbal expression.

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 see children five years old and up in my practice, and love helping them learn to see their potential and their innate gifts. I use directive play therapy to stimulate kids to think differently about their problems, cope with stress (including directions from authority figures) and enrich their inner lives. Teenagers will receive talk therapy, modified and tailored to their maturity level and challenges. Parenting consultations are an essential part of this process, so parents and caregivers can expect to be able to ask questions and get new parenting tools (and refinement of their existing ones).

In counseling children, my approach includes incorporating games and activities that provide a dynamic and effective approach to addressing self-esteem issues, reducing anxiety, and alleviating depression. Interactive games not only serve as tools for emotional expression but also facilitate social engagement, promoting healthy peer interactions and communication skills. Through strategic play, children can learn to navigate and manage their emotions, fostering resilience and coping mechanisms. This approach not only makes therapy enjoyable but also facilitates the development of essential life skills in a supportive environment, contributing to the overall emotional well-being of the child.

GRIT Kids exists to allow parents or caregivers to aid their children in the work of self-awareness—at every developmental stage— to better understand themselves and the world around them. Simple behavioral management fails to develop the internal locus of control that is necessary for developing character and self-discipline. Forming a self-identity and learning to live with purpose is a necessary life skill for children to learn in order to live into their fullest self. GRIT Kids Coaches are trained to help you do the work of raising your child with intention so you can see that little person grow into all they are capable of.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Supervisor, Certified Anger Resolution Therapist, Substance Abuse Professional

In 75087 - Nearby to Palmer.

With a Specialization in Children and Families, I understand that children work through problems the best by using play therapy. Sitting on a big couch like an adult does not work well with a child. Instead, we sit on the floor and play age-appropriate cards or board games. With their hands busy, they can express their concerns in a way that reduces anxiety and enable the child to learn new ways of coping with the problem. I communicate with parents so they understand the child's perspective and how they can help at home or school.

In my practice we do have a Play Therapy Room that I will often use when seeing young children. Therapy mixed with play helps the child to verbalize what they are experiencing on the inside. Emotions are not taught in schools. Play therapy is a great medium and tool that assist children in communicating what they might not have been able to with words.
