Children and adolescents are constantly faced with change and uncertainty.  They are expected to confront change on a regular basis (new schools, new teachers, new peers, and new experiences) while also undergoing changes to their brains and bodies as they develop into maturity. This makes it vital that caregivers provide consistency and stability in order to foster the healthy skills and attitudes children need for coping and overcoming challenges. But even the most nurturing and well-meaning parents and guardians sometimes need assistance to connect with and support children and preteens. If your children are having problems at home and school, it may be time to seek help.

The Counseling Center for Florence offers therapeutic services tailored to meet the unique and changing needs of children and adolescents to address emotional and behavioral issues, as well as support parents with effective methods for teaching and disciplining your children.

Our therapists are trained to identify and manage issues that include, but are not limited to: 

• ADHD
• Autism
• Behavioral issues
• Childhood anxiety
• Depression
• Food & eating issues
• Grief counseling
• Tourette syndrome

If you feel overwhelmed as a parent and believe there may be a better way to support your children, we are here to help.  Our counselors will work to empower you as a parent, and teach your children effective tools to promote self-confidence, healthy coping, and positive actions that will serve them for a lifetime.  Contact us today to schedule your appointment.

If you are not the biological parent, please bring Guardianship Papers, Most Current Court Order giving legal guardianship or custody, or a Kinship Agreement from DSS.
