Children and teens experience emotional distress in ways that are similar to adults, yet their unique developmental needs require a different approach to treatment. At Dr. Robin Lowey & Associates, our child therapists are specifically trained to address the challenges that arise during childhood and adolescence with a combination of evidence-based therapeutic techniques, including behavioral management, play therapy, sand tray therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), art therapy, and traditional talk therapy. By creating a warm, supportive, and collaborative environment, we help children and teens navigate their struggles, build resilience, and ultimately flourish.
Our therapists specialize in assisting children and teens with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), helping them not only manage their inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity but also develop the skills to thrive in all areas of life. Beyond treating ADHD, we provide support for children and teens facing grief and loss, helping them process the emotional turmoil that comes with the death of a loved one. In addition, we offer compassionate guidance to those coping with family difficulties, such as separation, divorce, or ongoing discord, helping them navigate these challenges in a healthy and constructive way. Our team also works with children to manage the anxiety and depression that results from bullying and social exclusion, offering strategies to rebuild confidence and improve social connection.
If you are concerned that your child is consistently sad, anxious, or angry, they could benefit from professional support. While it’s normal for children and adolescents to experience some emotional ups and downs, prolonged patterns of emotional or behavioral difficulty are a sign that therapy would be beneficial. Addressing these concerns early with a qualified therapist can help your child develop the coping skills necessary to manage their emotions, improve their well-being, and thrive throughout their lives.
