SLP Child & Teen Program 

A successful therapy early in life can improve a person’s resilience, self-esteem, and ability to fulfill their potential into the future.  The child and teen program at SLP can help to clear the barriers that inhibit a child from confidently becoming who they might be in the world.

Our child therapists are well trained in working with both children and adolescents from behavioral and psychodynamic approaches, incorporating play therapy, sandplay, and family or child-parent therapy, among others. They have specific expertise from training and providing psychotherapy to children and families in schools, community clinics, intensive treatment programs, child welfare programs, and private practice settings.

We also work in partnership with parents to help support their children and adolescents, as well as themselves. 

Please feel free to browse their profiles and reach out to us if you have any questions about starting therapy for your child or teen.
