CHILDREN

Children are a gift from God.  They are precious, innocent and valued as ‘little’ human beings! Due to the present day culture, even children being raised in a very loving family can still experience emotional challenges.  As  a parent or guardian it can be distressing to see your loved one struggling and not know exactly how to respond and offer help.

Aligning with our core belief system, we are committed to providing a compassionate, in-touch and personal approach in our counseling methods. We have extensive experience working with this age group in various settings, including schools, camps and private sessions.

Our approach is very practical and straight forward.  By using ‘hands on’  and interactive methods, we engage children in the counseling process  ‘Homework’ assignments are given after each session to enhance healing  and learning.

It has been said,“children are great recorders, but terrible interpreters”.  False interpretations can lead children to see themselves and/or others inaccurately. Additionally, our youngest client was three and had experienced sexual abuse, so please do not think your child is too young      to benefit from counseling.
