ADHD, Anxiety & Emotional Regulation Therapy for Kids

Mental health problems are more common in childhood than we often acknowledge. Approximately 50% of lifetime mental illnesses are diagnosed before the age of 14. We work with children and families to address common concerns including anxiety, ADHD, depression, and school concerns.

Educational Therapy & Executive Functioning Support

For ADHD, twice exceptional children, those with learning struggles, we offer Educational Therapy services. This can be a standalone intervention or excellent companion service for those experiencing school avoidance, test anxiety, or struggling with executive functioning skills.

ADHD Assessments

Our goal is to provide targeted, in-depth and data-driven ADHD assessments for children and adolescents ages 6 through 18.  We aim to provide diagnostic clarity along with tailored recommendations to help promote academic success and strategies to help support executive functioning skills building.

Feeding Therapy

Feeding disorders occur when a child is unable or unwilling to meet their nutritional needs by eating, or refuses to eat large categories of foods, such as fruits and vegetables. This can lead to poor growth and development and can cause other long-term medical problems.

Coping with Complex Medical Conditions

Children with chronic medical conditions are more than twice as likely to experience mental health concerns as their healthier peers. Managing a chronic condition can have both direct and indirect impact on quality of life, social development, and overall functioning. Whether they show this as anxiety, mood problems, behavioral challenges, or a combination of these, we can work together to teach appropriate ways to express and cope with the challenges of their condition.

From our Westerville office and through telehealth across Ohio, we meet families where they are—offering individual, parent-only, and family sessions tailored to unique needs. Our clinicians bring both expertise and compassion, guiding children, teens, and families toward meaningful growth and resilience. With a focus on evidence-based, client-centered care, we ensure your family’s values and goals shape the path to lasting well-being.
