Is Your Child Struggling?
You may be noticing changes in your child’s mood, behavior, or relationships. Whatever you’re facing — you don’t have to face it alone, and neither does your child.
Teen Therapy
A safe, honest space for teens ages 13–17 to talk about what’s really going on and build lasting coping skills.
Anxiety Therapy
Specialized support for separation anxiety, social anxiety, OCD, and worry — using CBT, mindfulness, and play-based tools.
Depression Therapy
Compassionate care for children and teens experiencing sadness, withdrawal, low motivation, or loss of hope — helping them rediscover joy.
Child Therapy
Play-based, evidence-based support for children ages 4–12 navigating big emotions, behavioral challenges, and developmental transitions.
Why Early Intervention Matters
There is often 8–10 years from the onset of symptoms to intervention. About half of adults with anxiety report their symptoms began in childhood. Intervene now — during the critical developmental years.
Meet Deborah Howell
As a teacher for 6 years and a therapist for over 10 years, Deborah’s sole practice is devoted to children and teens ages 4–17 and their families.
As a Registered Play Therapist, she uses sand, toys, paint, and creative approaches so that children and teens have a safe place to exhale — and learn successful ways to cope.
“Allow me to support you as together we replace the hurt your child is facing with hope.”
