Children
these days are exposed to so much. Depression and anxiety are on
the rise in this venerable population. Psychotherapy with children
and adolescents utilizes a variety of techniques and methods to help
those experiencing difficulties with emotions or behavior.
There are

the basic tool for bringing about change one’s feelings and
behaviors. In children and adolescents, playing, drawing, building,
and use of interactive tools, as well as talking, are important ways
of sharing feelings and resolving problems.
