The goal for this age will be for the child to develop awareness of their emotions, triggers, and develop coping skills to support their regulation. Due to this age, parents are usually very involved either with Parent Child Interaction therapy (PCIT), or co-jointed family sessions focused on play and attachment. With these regulation skills, they are able to stay on task, engage in appropriate behaviors, follow instruction, and communicate more clearly to their parent.
Therapy: Play, PCIT, CBT, TF:CBT, EMDR, Hypnosis

Children at this age are developing a greater sense of independence and learning who they are and where they fit into this world. The goal would be to increase understanding of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and how these all interact with each other. They will be able to learn more advance coping skills with sessions with parents to be monthly. My goal is always to improve the child's relationship with their parents.
Therapy: CBT, EMDR, TF:CBT, Brainspotting, Hypnosis

The teens years can be so difficult for the teen and for the parents! This is when teens may gravitate more towards their peers or feel distance from their parents. My goal would be to provide a safe place for them for them to open up about their struggles - focus on setting goals and increasing that communication with parents.
