About Youth anxiety and depression
Our Focus at Farahan Therapy & Associates is to build a safe and trusting relationship in order for your child to feel truly seen and understood. Although our children are receiving many types of instruction in their life, there is not a great deal of teaching regarding emotions and feelings. During the adolescence years, these challenging emotions can be especially difficult to manage. We understand that as a parent you may have many worries and concerns about your child’s behaviors, thoughts, and emotions that may be creating anxious and depressive loops.
How do we help kids with anxiety and depression?
We help your children to develop the essential elements of happiness, such as learning to value themselves and recognizing strengths. We help to create a positive relationship within the family that can help to build resilience against anxiety and depression.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to capitalize on the following goals:
- Learning coping skills to face fears and worries.
- Developing a new healthy way to deal with stress and to manage and regulate emotions.
- Build healthy boundaries in relationships.
- Identify ineffective thoughts and providing the strategies to build life-changing patterns.
- Feel more confident and capable of experiencing and expressing their emotions
Knowing where to start as a parent can be difficult, but we at Farahan Therapy & Associates have the expertise and knowledge to assist your child to live a more enjoyable and worry-free life.
