Counseling for Child Problems
Like delicate seedlings, children need special tending to by providing attention, food, light, and certainly, love. Just as a plant may go into shock and wither when uprooted and placed in an inhospitable environment, a child may also show signs of shock or difficulty adjusting when they don't have the resources or support to help them get through necessary developmental changes. Not being able to provide time and attention, or overfeeding or underfeeding may lead to growth and developmental issues. Children face challenges both internally and externally. Carol H. Corcoran, LCMFT, LMFT can help with many of these challenges:
