Anyone who needs to use insurance will know that diagnosing is important in order for your insurance company to reimburse. I often say if that I would rarely diagnose if I didn't need to because sometimes I think being diagnosis focused therapy often misses the point and may keep me from seeing the whole person. That being said, we live in a real world and not every one can avoid using insurance. 

It is hard to give an exhaustive list of the issues or diagnoses that we are able to treat. Collectively, we are able to do child centered play therapy, activity based play therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, art therapy, sand tray, talk therapy...so many ways to target so many symptoms. Here is a quick overview.

Trauma in Children/Teens: Sexual abuse, loss of a parent or loved one, chronic illness, neglect, child abuse, natural disasters, etc
Chronic Illness in Children/Teens  Cancer, tick related illness, PANDAS, diabetes, etc
Divorce & Other Changes in Children/Teens Divorce, moving homes, illness, loss of a pet, etc
Anxiety & Depression in Children/Teens Worry thoughts, OCD tendencies, rigid thinking, dark thoughts, suicidal 
thoughts, anxious feelings
