Samantha hasn’t been herself since she started at a new school. She used to be a happy and energetic child who loved seeing her classmates. But things have been different ever since her family moved to a new state. She begs to stay home every day and pretends to be sick to get out of class. She’s hardly eating and throws a fit whenever it’s time to go to school.

Samantha’s parents can’t get her to open up about what’s bothering her, but they think she’s frustrated at moving away from her friends and having to start over at a new school. It seems like nothing they do makes things better. Thankfully, there’s another option for this kind of situation: working with a child therapist or counselor.

Nothing is more difficult than seeing your child struggle. Child therapists are mental health professionals who specialize in helping children address their issues and move past them. They can help with mental illness, learning disorders, change, trauma, and much more.

If your child is going through a difficult time, consider reaching out to a therapist or counselor from Thriveworks Counseling in Monroe LA. Our team of child mental health specialists can help your child live a happy life and learn good mental health habits that will serve them well as they grow up.

Should My Child Start Seeing a Therapist or Counselor?

You face so many difficulties in your life –– stress from work, relationships, and being a parent. Your child faces their own problems, and many are different from yours. Thankfully, working with a therapist can support your child through these difficult times and help them learn and grow.

We understand that every child is different and faces their own problems. Working with a five-year-old whose parents went through a divorce is a different situation from a sixteen-year-old who’s dealing with social anxiety. Our therapists and counselors can foster a comfortable environment that’s catered specifically to your child so they feel taken care of.

There are many different reasons that a child might benefit from therapy or counseling, including:

  • Autism concerns or diagnosis
  • Behavioral issues at school
  • Difficulty with bullies
  • Anxiety or depression
  • Trouble making friends
  • Substance abuse or addiction
  • Losing a loved one
  • Anger management issues
  • Low self-esteem

Our trained mental health professionals have the tools and training to identify and treat many different mental health issues in children. Call our office today at Thriveworks Counseling in Monroe, LA if you want to get started.

Can Child Therapy Help My Son or Daughter?

Children express their feelings in different ways. Mental health professionals use a wide variety of tools and methodologies that can help your child feel comfortable and talk about their issues.

At Thriveworks, our licensed professionals utilize a variety of therapy techniques, including:

  • Talk therapy
  • Play therapy
  • Family therapy
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Art therapy
  • Narrative therapy

We know that every child is different. That’s why your child’s therapist or counselor will assess your child’s situation to determine what treatments or interventions would work best for them. They can find the right treatment methodology to help your child open up about their problems and improve their mental health.

Our therapists and counselors can help children cope with difficult times, learn good mental health habits, and grow up in a healthy way. They are skilled at working with children and their families to help everyone move forward together. If you want to work with one of our mental health professionals, call our office today at Thriveworks Counseling in Monroe, LA.
