Anxiety and Big Life Changes
Even the most talkative child may not have the words to accurately and effectively communicate his/her/their emotions, experiences and needs. This can make a child feel frustrated, sad and misunderstood. Anxiety often hides in plain sight and many children will never receive treatment. Taking care of mental health is just as important as taking care of physical health.
Behavioral Challenges
All behavior is communication and has a function. The first step in helping a child manage behavior better is to understand what is causing the behavior. The most effective way to significantly improve or reduce the frequency of behavioral outbursts in children is through working directly with parents and caregivers.
