Growing up can be tough.
Bullying…
Feeling anxious about school testing…
Getting into the “right” peer group…
The death of a parent or loved one…
Being an empathic kid and not knowing what to do with all those big feelings…
You can see how hard your kid struggles with worry, school, bullying, or weight issues. Seeing their struggles manifest in upsetting behavior change can unnerve even the most seasoned parents.
Here are some of the things kids come to see me for:
- Anxiety or worries
- Grief and loss
- Self-esteem and weight issues
- Getting into the “right” peer group
- Appetite issues (more or less hungry)
- Headaches/stomachaches
- Behavior problems
