Counseling for Children and Teens
In-Person Sessions in West Los Angeles
Today was really hard
You knew being a parent would be challenging but there have been so many difficult days. This emotional roller coaster is draining your spirit.
You’ve talked, encouraged and advocated for them, tried consequences and rewards. But your child still struggles. Verbalizing their feelings is hard. Often, they resist your help. Instead, they push you away.
You feel stuck. You worry how the highs and lows of today will impact their future tomorrows.
Therapy will help
Every child needs to feel their feelings. In therapy, I will explore how your child can express their emotions without being overwhelmed by them.
Every child is different. In therapy, I will explore your child’s capacity to be emotionally challenged, empowering them to move forward at a pace that is “just right” for them.
Every family is different. In therapy, I will explore how to strengthen family relationships and bonds. You can enjoy the calm, knowing you are better prepared to weather whatever storms come your way.
Ready to reach out for support?
Contact me to schedule a free 20-minute consultation.
Let’s talk about what is going on in your child’s life – what’s changing and what is not changing. I’m happy to answer any questions you have about my practice and experience.
If therapy is a good fit for your child, we can schedule their first session.
Parenting Support
Parenting is the most important but toughest job on the planet. But parenting is really hard when your child is struggling.
Parenting support helps you help your child. We can talk through your fears and frustrations and try new approaches to managing stressful situations.
Coparenting also brings its own challenges. If you and your coparent have very different points of view on how to raise your child, let’s explore how you can best work as a team.
If you need parenting support don’t hesitate to reach out.
Call or email me to schedule a free 20-minute consultation. Let’s talk about your concerns. Ask me about child therapy. Take a step forward in a new direction to help your child.
Meet Frances
My practice is dedicated to supporting children, because I believe in the powerful impact of early intervention.
Children carry their childhood learnings with them throughout their lives. I want to help you help your child grow into a person who can weather adversity, explore life with curiosity and seek to share their joys, sorrows and passions with others.
It’s never too early to give your child an extra helping hand.
