Child & Teen Therapy in Illinois and Arizona
Helping Children and Teens Thrive Emotionally, Socially, and Mentally
We understand that children and teens require different therapeutic techniques than adults. Our therapists are trained in developmentally appropriate, evidence-based methods that are tailored to each child’s age, personality, and needs.
When to Consider Therapy for Your Child or Teen
Parenting a child or teen who is struggling emotionally can be both heartbreaking and exhausting. Whether your child is showing signs of anxiety, emotional distress, or behavioral challenges, compassionate, age-appropriate support can make all the difference.
At Fash Counseling, we specialize in child and adolescent therapy for youth ages 2–18 in Illinois and 8–18 in Arizona, offering tools to help young people better understand themselves and build lifelong coping skills.
