Therapy for School Struggles
for kids with anxiety
CANTON, OHIO

Maybe every morning feels like a fight to get them out the door. Or perhaps their teachers have mentioned some concerns about their school work. They may be telling you they have no friends or that they don't like their teachers. Maybe they've even gotten called into the principal's office for something (and you got the follow-up call).
Whatever they’re experiencing, you’ve begun to notice the impact in every facet of their life:
They've stopped playing with friends. They're constantly fighting with you about homework.
They've started staying in bed longer on school days.
And you feel stuck not knowing what to do to help them.
Therapy for School Struggles can help!
It may feel impossible now, but your child can enjoy going to school. They can thrive in their classroom. They can find self-confidence.
And I can help them get there!
Therapy for School Struggles helps your child do 3 things:
-
Work from a place of strengths
-
Build self-confidence in the classroom
-
Ask for help from teachers and school staff so they can feel empowered and confident in their classroom.
I’ll help them through this process, tailoring each step to your child’s unique needs and circumstances. My approach to Therapy for School Struggles comes from a place of hope and empathy: enabling your child to have a better outlook on life and feel like they can accomplish anything!
Frequently Asked Questions​
​
Q: What are Therapy sessions like?
​
A: After the initial assessment appointment, I work on building rapport with your child by playing or doing art with them so they can express how they're feeling when they cannot put words to their emotions. I use these techniques to allow them to feel at ease so they can talk about how they’re feeling once they learn they have someone who understands. Each session is one on one with the child, so it creates a safe space outside of parent rules to express themselves that they’ve never really known.
Q: How long does my child need to be in therapy?
​
A: It really depends on the needs of your child. Some therapy with children is short term if it’s a specific situation in life that's causing their anxiety or sadness. With something long-standing, like chronic anxiety, it could take a series of months.
Q: How do I know if Child Therapy will work for my child?
​
A: I have over 10 years’ experience working with children struggling with anxiety and depression. I’ve devoted my entire career to developing ways to empower children so they can be in control of their lives. They will feel better about themselves and have a better path before them after treatment with me.
Q: How do we get started?
​
A: Fill out the contact form to set up a free consultation. I'll talk with you about your child's needs and together we'll decide if I'm the right fit. Then, we will schedule your first appointment to begin the therapy process.
