Supporting the Mental Wellness of Children & Teens at The Mental Wellness Center

Growing up comes with its own set of challenges. At The Mental Wellness Center, we offer specialized therapy services for children and adolescents, helping them navigate emotional, behavioral, and social hurdles in a safe, supportive space. Our therapists create a nurturing environment that encourages healing, growth, and personal development.

Our Therapy Services for Kids & Adolescents:

• Therapy for Kids: Where Healing Meets Playfulness: We know that kids often communicate through play. Our therapy sessions for younger children use creative, play-based techniques to help them express feelings, manage anxiety, build self-esteem, and develop healthy coping skills. This fun, interactive approach makes it easier for children to understand and overcome their challenges.

• Adolescent Therapy: Adolescence is a pivotal time filled with complex emotions, identity exploration, and peer pressures. Our adolescent therapy is designed to help teens navigate these issues, offering support for anxiety, depression, school stress, family conflicts, and more. Through a combination of talk therapy, skill-building, and personalized strategies, we empower teens to thrive emotionally and socially.

• Parent Consultations: Our Child and Adolescent Clinical Director, Jessica Pippin, LCPC often works alongside parents to navigate the complexities of parenting, diagnoses, school, therapy, and other potential needs.  Starting with identifying concerns and struggles, Jessica helps parents to develop a plan to increase positive changes for their child and family.  On a personal level, Jessica also brings with her the experience of living with and loving a quirky child of her own.  

  Parent consultation can be done as a stand-alone service or can be done in conjunction with individual therapy services with any of our providers.  Including parents in the process increases child and adolescent success and can often impact all areas of their lives.  The child, parents, school, primary care providers, and psychologists can all work together.  Often this is an overwhelming process, but Jessica can help prioritize services based on the biggest challenges and prepare you for meetings and appointments.
