KIDS

If you feel sad, nervous or angry; if you feel like you can’t get it together…we can help.

Did you know that one in five kids has an emotional or behavioral difficulty like depression or anxiety? In fact, research has shown that half of all mental health problems begin before age 14. Fortunately, there are treatments that help. If you are struggling, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Contact a parent or school counselor, or call us directly.
