Children and Adolescents

Offering to Listen, Ready to Guide

Grief, bullying, physical trauma and emotional trauma: any one of these issues can cloud one's childhood or teenage years. Mood disorders can alter a young person’s behavior with disastrous results.

Sometimes children just need an independent listener, someone who can help them discover solutions. Others need coping mechanisms to serve them in their daily struggles. Cynthia will listen with concern and patience, encouraging them to find the solutions that suit their situation and personality best.
