| Children's Therapy in Madison Connecticut 06443 |
| We recognize that choosing to seek help for a problem can be hard. Sometimes children themselves recognize that something is wrong, while other times parents or teachers identify a difficulty or situation. Therapy can help a child understand what may be making them sad, worried, or behaving in ways that is causing them problems in their daily lives at home or at school. |

| Depending on their individual developmental stages in life, all children have unique needs and concerns when attending therapy or counseling. Children's therapy has these essential components. It is a combination of listening and talking, as well as building a supportive and trusting relationship with the therapist or counselor. It may take several meeting with a therapist before a child is comfortable enough to share. Mental health therapy sessions are learning sessions for children. They learn to develop new ways of building skills, and coping with troubling thoughts, and behaviors. Children and families work to strengthen their abilities to make changes, with the support of professionals. At Coastal Counseling Associates we make every effort to build a constructive and supportive relationship with a child. Our therapists have taken course work in human development and children's therapy approaches. A therapist has special skills in talking, listening, and observation. They are patient and support the child and family. |
