Above all else, your child’s wellbeing is of top priority. To you, and to us.
Children and teens face specific challenges that require careful consideration. Our network of trained specialists at GLPG use evidence-based interventions for children and teens across all stages of development.
Collaboration with other care providers can be essential for optimizing your child’s improvement. When appropriate, GLPG's network of therapists will work hard to coordinate with your child’s other care providers, like their primary care physician and school counselors, to ensure a thorough and streamlined treatment plan.

Did you know?
What to expect
Most therapists will request that one or both parents accompany their child to the first appointment. From there, your child’s therapist will develop a treatment plan which may include individual sessions with your child, sessions with the parents alone, family sessions, or any combination of these. Your child’s treatment plan will be customized based on their history, presenting problems, and goals for treatment.
Intervention with children and teens often starts with helping the child and their parents learn more about the challenges the child faces from a psychological, developmental, and environmental perspective.
The child may learn effective strategies for coping through challenges like grief, bullying, divorce, and more.
They may learn cognitive and behavioral strategies for reframing unhelpful thinking patterns and making self-serving choices.
Treatment is never one-size-fits-all: treatment plans are developed with careful consideration of your child’s unique history, personality, strengths, and challenges.
