Sometimes we lose it with our children, their behaviors are escalating, refusing to go to bed, getting daily phone calls from the school staff complaining how "bad" little Johnny or Sally has been in school today, or just giving you the silent treatment. It is natural for all parents to get frustrated and start to raise our voice, maybe even threaten to spank them if they did not perk up. Does this sound familiar?

Finding a Child Therapist in Orange County, Costa Mesa, CA.

Typically parents will seek counseling or therapy for their children when other professionals, whether it may be the school counselor, the child's pediatrician, or even the parent's own therapist suggest their child could benefit from counseling or therapy. Or parent's notice a change in their child's mood, increase in anxiety, isolating from peers and family, the child experiencing the stress of his/her parents going through a high conflicted divorce, or experienced a traumatic event (physical, sexual, emotional abuse, neglect, medical trauma, etc).
