Child & Adolescent Therapy in Holmdel, NJ

Child & adolescent therapy gives young people a supportive space to discuss emotions, relationships, school stress, and behavioral concerns. Our licensed counselors and therapists adapt their approach to developmental needs.

The first appointment

Your therapist learns about current concerns, strengths, development, family circumstances, and school experiences. Parent or caregiver input may be part of this process. Your therapist will discuss participation, privacy, and goals in a way that fits the child or teen’s age and circumstances.

Follow-up and caregiver involvement

Sessions may focus on expressing feelings, building coping skills, and practicing new responses to challenges. Your therapist will discuss how caregivers can support this work, review progress, and recommend a follow-up schedule based on individual needs.

Treatment Modalities We Offer

01

Play Therapy

Play therapy allows children to express their feelings and experiences through play, which is often their natural form of communication. This approach helps children process emotions,
develop problem-solving skills, and improve self-expression.

02

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Youth

CBT helps children and teens identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier ones. This evidence-based method is effective in addressing anxiety, depression, and behavioral challenges.

03

Family-Inclusive Therapy

Because family dynamics play an important role in a child’s well-being, our therapists often include parents and caregivers in the therapeutic process. This fosters communication, strengthens relationships, and ensures consistent support at home.

04

Trauma-Informed Therapy

For children and adolescents who have experienced trauma, our therapists provide a compassionate, safe, and structured approach. This therapy helps reduce symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and emotional distress.

05

Social Skills Training
