Child and Adolescent Therapy
Children communicate differently from adults and, as experienced therapists, we meet them where they are.
Our therapy for younger children uses play and parent consultation in a safe setting that promotes trust and healthy development. Older children and adolescents receive therapy using evidence-based talk therapies tailored to each young person's specific needs and strengths.

Yes, working with children and adolescents is a large part of what we do. We offer individual therapy, play therapy, parent consultation, IEP consultations, and neuropsychological assessments, including ADHD testing and Autism evaluations, for school-age children and young adults.
What's the Difference Between a Therapist and a Psychologist?

At FPS, we employ both therapists and doctoral-level psychologists to provide comprehensive services under one roof.
