Does your child have trouble dealing with their emotions? Is their behavior sometimes disruptive to your home life? Have they experienced sudden loss or trauma? As they grow, children and adolescents develop social skills and emotional intelligence. This awareness helps them to develop into healthy, happy, and successful individuals. But some children have trouble processing their emotions and this often leads to behavior that negatively impacts their school life, home life and overall well-being. Therapy offers children and adolescents a safe space to work through their thoughts and emotions. With the help of a specialized therapist, children can resolve problems, modify behaviors, and make positive and lasting changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT is a short-term, problem-focused form of behavioral treatment that helps people see the difference between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings, and free them from unhelpful patterns of behavior. 

Acceptance and commitment therapy or ACT teaches skills to help individuals live and behave in ways consistent with personal values while developing psychological flexibility. 

Dialectical behavior therapy or DBT teaches skills to help individuals process two opposite emotions and make space for them. Its main goals are to teach people how to live in the moment, develop healthy ways to cope with stress, regulate their emotions, and improve their relationships with others.

Therapy can help to uncover the underlying causes of your worries and fears, learn how to relax, look at situations in a new, less frightening way, and develop better coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills. When it comes to treating anxiety, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety and depression  therapy  treats more than just symptoms of the problem.

Our family affects who we are and who we become, both for the better and for the worse. We learn our vocabulary, our habits, our customs and rituals, and how to view and observe the world around us. Anyone seeking healthier, closer family relationships can benefit from family therapy. Family therapy is necessary to address family issues and heal a family’s wounds. If any of the above scenarios resonate with your family, consider seeking family therapy. Family therapy can be beneficial on many different levels.

Nothing really prepares you to become a parent. Some grew in families that have parents that set a good example but others  grew up in homes where the dynamic between child and parent was challenging.

But the truth is, even if you did have loving parents that did right by you 24/7, you can never be fully prepared to handle sticky situations with your own children. You never really know what behavioral challenges your child may wind up struggling with, and how those will affect your other children and the family as a whole.

Parent coaching is a service that teaches parents strategies on how to handle challenges with their children. 

Nada te prepara para hacer un padre de familia. Unos crecieron en familias con padres de familia consistentes otros crecieron en familias que fueron dificiles.  Pero con las propias estrategias puedes lidear con situaciones en tu familia. 

Nuestro servicio de entranemiento para padres de familia ayuda a padres a obtener las estrategias que necesitan para lidear con dificultades que tienen con sus hijos (as). 

Play therapy makes a difference. Play is an enjoyable, fun activity that elevates our spirits and brightens our outlook on life. Play relieves feelings of stress and boredom and, most importantly, helps us express ourselves. Play therapy refers to a large number of treatment methods, all applying the therapeutic benefits of play. Play therapy helps children to address and resolve their own problems and builds on the natural way that children learn about themselves and their relationships in the world around them.

Group therapy’s effectiveness lies in its ability to help you find connections with other people and their experiences. These therapist-guided sessions will help you learn more about yourself and how to improve the way you feel while feeling support from others who understand your experience.

Teens can often face some serious life challenges that impact their mental health and well-being. Most of us remember our teenage years as a combination of great fun, burgeoning freedom, and a tremendous amount of stress. During this time our hormone levels are skyrocketing, making us feel emotionally out of control. We also feel a greater need to perform well academically and fit into social circles. All of this stress can take its toll on a teen’s mental health and overall well-being.

Terapia de adolesentes ayuda que los adolescentes se sientan escuchados especialmente en el tiempo de desarollo donde sus emociones andan en varios lugares. Terapia puede ayudar al joven a sentir que tiene un espacio para poder hablar con alguien y aprender estrategias para seguir adelante.

Young adult counseling refers to therapeutic support and guidance provided to individuals typically between the ages of 18 and 30. This stage of life often involves significant transitions and challenges, such as completing education, entering the workforce, establishing independence, forming relationships, and navigating personal identity development. At Child Haven Counseling we believe that support does not end when the youth turns 18. The 18-30 transition period is pivotal and merits support to overcome challenges.  Therefore, we provide young adult counseling to help you during this period.

We provide skills coaching in order to help clients be coached through their behavioral concerns. Skills coaching differs from therapy as skills coaching is an educational approach towards behavioral concerns that is action-oriented and forward-looking. Through skills coaching clients learn tools and are required to implement action steps towards their goals to see improvements. Skills coaching is effective in helping individuals cope through behavioral health concerns like anxiety, depression and emotional dysregulation.
