A child’s behavior is often a signal, not a “bad attitude.” In Chicago, stress can show up as meltdowns, shutdowns, school refusal, stomachaches, sleep issues, or constant arguing. This video explains what those patterns may be communicating and how child therapy can help build real-life coping skills, emotional regulation, and healthier routines at home and school.

Child therapy may include play-based approaches, kid-friendly CBT tools, and caregiver coaching, so progress shows up where it matters most: mornings, homework time, bedtime, and school transitions. Early support can reduce conflict, improve confidence, and help children feel safer in their own bodies.
