Families & Children’s Therapy

childrens therapy in Virginia Beach

There is no greater pain for a parent than a child who is not well, whether physically or emotionally. Worrying about your son or daughter can make every day nearly unbearable. It can be difficult for you, as a parent, to think about much else. Your fears and concerns may have been building for some time and you cannot ignore them any longer. Perhaps there is an intense and immediate event in your child’s life that is extremely concerning and you feel unprepared to cope or help your child recover.
All parents want to feel like we can handle any issue that our child may be facing. We want to have all of the answers. We want to help our children move past any pain and difficulty with ease. Unfortunately, we are not always equipped to do this and sometimes seeking the help of a professional is the best alternative.

Why choose C&C Therapy?

There are many reasons a child may benefit from child therapy. Difficulty in school, at home, or with friends may be causing you to wonder if your child could have an easier time in these situations. Perhaps a school counselor or someone else who works with your child has suggested that you seek a professional counselor for your son or daughter. This may be difficult to hear, but it may also be confirming fears you have had for some time.

The reasons to consider therapy for your child vary depending on the child’s age. Dealing with a trauma for a toddler is significantly different than dealing with the same issue with a teenager. A trained child therapist can work with any age child, using different techniques to communicate with them, identify the problem and work towards a solution.

Families are encouraged to participate in therapy for a child. In some cases, therapy for the child and the family is essential in order to identify the root issue and come up with open and honest solutions that everyone will be willing to work towards.
