Parents, and the helping professionals who work with them, are seeking support for a broad range of psychological concerns in young people . These may include a range of developmental concerns like autism, developmental delays  and learning disabilities. Or emotional, behavioral and other psychological concerns, like attention problems. Perhaps the young person is showing  acting out behaviors, or internalizing problems, like depression and/or anxiety. Or what about the young person who has experienced complex ongoing trauma or an acute traumatic event, like a MVA.

What about acquired brain injuries like concussion or TBI?

These are just some of the concerns that worried parents, and the professionals who work with  them, and their children,  seek support for. They seek help to address concerns that extend from the relatively minor, to the more extreme.
