Our evidence-based approach to working with children and teens in Miami and South Florida is advanced and unique in South Florida. Our approach is to use a combination of child psychology, child therapy and child and adolescent coaching in Miami, with a foundation of Dyadic Development Psychotherapy and Dyadic Development Parenting.
This approach works on developing the relationship with the child and also works on the parent-child relationships as these are the most important relationships in the child’s life, not the relationship with the child psychologist, child therapist or coach.
Our approach brings the latest understandings in attachment theory and how it affects children, what we understand about developmental trauma in children and teens, the neurobiology of trauma, adverse childhood experiences and relationships, caregiving, intersubjectivity theory and the latest evidence-based understandings in child development.
Our combination of child psychology, therapy, and Dyadic Development Psychotherapy, Dyadic Development Parenting and Coaching can help your child through difficult experiences such as:
- Parent-Child Conflicts
- Behavior Problems
- Anger & Upset Behavior
- Withdrawal & Avoidance of Love from Parental Figures
- Emotional Breakdowns
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Eating Disorders
- School/Academic Issues
- Self-Esteem Issues
- Difficulty adjusting to Changes
- Loss & Grief
- Divorce Challenges
We have an understanding of the numerous and complex emotional difficulties children, adolescents and parents face today. Including technology use, and the pressure children are under to perform at school. Our approach to child psychology, child therapy and coaching is to work with the parent-child relationships and we also coordinate closely with other people and professionals to build a team and structure of support around children, when appropriate.
