Child Therapists in Jacksonville, FL

I offer a relationship-based approach to support the emotional and behavioral needs of children ages 0-5 by working closely with the child and parents within their natural environment. Common early childhood concerns can include the following: eating/sleeping difficulties, irritability or despairing tantrums, dysregulation or inability to be consoled, inability to adapt to new situations, aggression or impulsive behavior, withdrawn or flat affect, separation distress, poor peer interaction skills, anxiety, fear, limited communication skills, regression or loss of developmental skills, traumatic experiences.

Stresses in life happen all the time, and sometimes we just need that extra support to get through them! I've worked with and enjoy working with clients of all ages. While most of my experience lies in working with children from elementary to high school age, I also have experience in helping adults work through personal and relationship issues.

Is your gifted, creative, or high-performing child struggling with anxiety, stress or confidence issues? Our younger kids can struggle with behavioral issues because they are overstimulated, bored, or just misunderstood in school. Our older teens may be overwhelmed, stressed, or even have thoughts about self-harm. Our kids have unique stressors related to perfectionism, sensitivity, high pressure, and social relationships. Sometimes these things can make it challenging for them to feel like they belong. Help your child discover a safe space to develop confidence and happiness by contacting me today.

I also provide therapy for children and their parents for a range of emotional and behavioral needs. A focus is given to skill development, both for children and parents.

Hello! I am passionate about the work I do helping children (ages 6+), adolescents, adults, and families find hope, peace, and healing in their lives. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, social phobia, grief, adjustment disorders, divorce-related issues, and post-abortion issues. I employ an eclectic mix of cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused, and child-centered family systems.

Hello! I am an L.C.S.W. located in South Florida. I have been counseling adults, children, and families since 2005. I am trained in Functional Family Therapy and Multi-systemic Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I think the most important part of therapy is getting to know you, or you and your family, in therapy.

I offer individual mental health counseling to children, adolescents, and families. Children can often times be difficult for adults to understand. Even those children who act like "little grownups" need help communicating their needs and feelings in a developmentally appropriate way. At times we have to uncover those challenging feelings that are suppressed, which become the root of problematic symptoms. When facing difficulties, the entire family system can be impacted. I believe people are so resilient and have the inherent capability to work towards healing and growth when provided with a safe and supportive space.

We work with children and teens across a span of conditions, from ADHD, anxiety, depression, anger management, bullying, gender identity, grief and loss, and much more across a range of conditions, experiences, and symptoms. Learn more or reach out at www.emorahealth.com.

Trained at the Yale Center for Traumatic Stress and Recovery, I help young adults and families who are struggling in the wake of recent traumatic events, or stressful events that may have happened years ago. Clients I have helped on the path to recovery have experienced sexual, physical or emotional abuse, domestic, school or community violence, motor vehicle accidents, loss of a parent or important attachment figure, natural or man-made disasters, a stressful life change, and multiple or complex traumas. They may also suffer from symptoms of anxiety, depression, poor self-esteem, and have difficulties concentrating or sleeping.

My mission is to improve the lives of the families with whom I work. I utilize a variety of techniques to improve functioning and strengthen both individual and family relations. Treatment modalities such as cognitive behavior therapy, systems therapy, and solution-focused therapy are used to help my clients cope with a variety of challenges. I also enjoy working with adults experiencing life transitions such as career changes, relationship issues, or marital struggles.
