Psychotherapy
Whether exploring the dynamics of your psychological life or developing specific cognitive strategies, psychotherapy can be a unique opportunity to change some unhelpful patterns and find a deeper and richer self-understanding. For children, early intervention can reduce suffering, particularly during times of school/family/personal stress.
Medication
Alone or in combination with psychotherapy, medication can be helpful. I tend to be conservative in prescribing medication and want to be certain that a specific medication is providing benefit. I take particular care in prescribing for children.
These modalities may be appropriate for conditions such as
Attention Deficit Disorder/Learning Disabilities/School problems Anxiety/Phobias/Fears/Worries
Grief/Loss
Mood Disorders
Depression/Self-Harm Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
PTSD/Trauma
Self-Esteem
