Managing Adolescents’ Mental Health
Chapin & Russell’s counselors take several approaches to address the mental health concerns of your children. Using methods such as psychotherapy and play therapy, we help your children uncover the source of their mental health concerns and teach helpful strategies for coping and adapting.
- Psychotherapy – By establishing a therapeutic relationship and using talk therapy we make every effort to meet all of our young clients where they are at, to create a safe and inviting counseling experience. Through this relationship, we are able to identify the underlying issues that cause them emotional distress.
- Play Therapy – Primarily for younger children. Through the use of toys and games, we help your child safely express and comfortably explore the emotional challenges they currently face.
- Social Skills Training – Social anxiety affects as many as 70% of all children sometime during their childhood. Social skills and emotional intelligence training is offered to children to help them gain self-confidence and to improve their interpersonal skills.
- Study Skills – Academics and homework don’t have to overwhelm or stress your child. Our counselors can help your children learn practical study skills they can utilize throughout their lives.
