Child Therapy

Big Feelings Need Big Skills


Sometimes kids don't have the words for what's going on.


Instead, it shows up as meltdowns, frustration, worry, shutting down, school struggles, or behavior that seems impossible to understand.


At Cerebrum, we help children make sense of their emotions in ways that actually fit their age and developmental stage. Through play, creativity, movement, conversation, and evidence-based therapy, we help kids build confidence, coping skills, and healthier ways to express what they're feeling.

Child Therapy May Help If Your Child Is...



  • Having frequent meltdowns or emotional outbursts
  • Struggling with anxiety or excessive worry
  • Having difficulty with friendships or social skills
  • Experiencing behavioral challenges at home or school
  • Navigating ADHD or executive functioning difficulties
  • Processing grief, trauma, or major life changes
  • Showing signs of low self-esteem or emotional withdrawal



Therapy That Feels Natural for Kids


Children communicate differently than adults.


That's why therapy doesn't always look like sitting in a chair and talking for an hour.


Depending on your child's age and needs, sessions may include:


  • Play Therapy
  • Art & Creative Expression
  • Games & Interactive Activities
  • CBT Skills
  • EMDR for Trauma
  • Mindfulness & Emotional Regulation Tools
  • Parent Support & Collaboration


We meet kids where they are and help them grow from there.




What Parents Can Expect


You're an important part of the process.


We'll work together to understand what's happening beneath the behavior, identify goals, and build strategies that support your child both inside and outside of sessions.


Our goal isn't just helping your child feel better in therapy.


It's helping them thrive at home, in school, and in everyday life.
