We begin with a comprehensive consultation to understand your child's needs and concerns.
A custom tailored therapy plan is created, focusing on your child's unique strengths and challenges.
A collaborative approach is implemented, focusing on engaging parents & teachers to support the child's needs.
If your child shows persistent sadness, anxiety, or behavioral changes, they may benefit from counseling. Other signs include difficulty in school, social withdrawal, changes in eating or sleeping patterns, or expressing hopelessness. Early intervention is crucial, and Upward Counseling is here to support your child through these challenges.
At Upward Counseling, our therapists are trained in a variety of child-oriented modalities, including SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions), play therapy, TEAM-CBT, and client-centered therapy. We focus on and emphasize strong collaboration with parents, teachers, and other providers to ensure comprehensive support for your child.

You helped my son change his whole perspective on school. He’s much more positive & upbeat in the mornings. We attribute that to the work you’ve done with him!
