Child and Teen Therapy in Phoenix, Scottsdale and Mesa

Your Child Doesn't Have to Keep Struggling Alone

As a parent, watching your child struggle is one of the hardest things you can experience. You can see something is wrong but you're not sure what to do, how to help, or whether what they're going through is something they'll grow out of or something that needs real support.


Maybe your child has become withdrawn, irritable, or anxious in ways that feel new and worrying. Maybe your teenager is shutting you out, struggling at school, or dealing with things they won't talk about. Maybe you've noticed changes in their mood, their sleep, their friendships, or their sense of themselves.


You don't have to figure this out alone. Our licensed child and teen therapists help young people ages 5 through 17 find their footing again, and help families understand how to support them through it.

Get Your Child the Support They Need

Our care team will talk with you about what your child is going through and match them with the right therapist within one business day.

Teenagers carrying the weight of chronic illness, family stress, or the constant feeling of falling short need more than advice. They need someone who gets it. Kelli's compassionate, polyvagal-informed approach using DBT and CBT helps teens feel more grounded, more capable, and less alone.

Not every child or teenager can put what they're feeling into words, and they shouldn't have to. Rebecca's approach as an art therapist and EMDR-trained counselor opens a different path to healing, using creative expression and body-based awareness to help young people process experiences that language alone can't always reach.

Adolescents who feel overwhelmed, emotionally disregulated, or unsure how to move forward often just need a space that feels safe and consistent. Lazarica offers exactly that, using CBT, DBT, and mindfulness to help teens build the coping tools they need to handle what life throws at them.

Making It Easy to Take the First Step

Here's Exactly What Happens When You Reach Out

We know that as a parent, reaching out on behalf of your child can feel overwhelming, especially when you're not sure where to start or what to ask. So here is exactly what happens when you contact us, with no unknowns and no surprises.


You send us a message or give us a call. Someone from our care coordination team, a real person and not an automated system, will follow up within one business day. They'll talk with you about what your child is experiencing, what you're hoping for, and any specific needs your child has. From there, they'll match your child with the therapist who is the right fit for their age, their personality, their needs, and your family's schedule and insurance.


In-person child and teen therapy is available at our offices in Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Mesa, by appointment only. Telehealth is available for teens and adolescents anywhere in Arizona including Tucson, Flagstaff, Prescott, and Yuma.


We accept Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Optum, and BCBS. Not sure if your plan covers therapy for your child? Reach out and we'll verify your benefits before the first appointment. And if you'd like your child to meet their therapist before committing to a full session, just ask. A free 15-minute consultation is available upon request.
