Therapy for Children

Childhood is a time of rapid emotional, social, and cognitive growth, and it’s also when challenges like anxiety, emotional dysregulation, school avoidance, or social difficulties often first emerge. Because children don’t always have the words for what they’re feeling, their struggles tend to show up in behavior, mood, or physical complaints. Child therapy at Midtown Psychology uses evidence-based, developmentally appropriate approaches such as CBT, play-based interventions, and parent coaching to help children build skills, process experiences, and develop lasting emotional resilience, with families and schools involved along the way.

Therapy for Adults

Adulthood brings constant change, including career shifts, evolving relationships, and responsibilities that can pile up faster than we can process them. When stress, anxiety, low mood, or relationship difficulties persist or begin to interfere with daily life, individual therapy offers a structured, supportive space to make sense of what’s happening. Midtown Psychology draws on evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based strategies, tailored to each person’s goals, to help adults better understand their emotions, build practical coping skills, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.

Assessments

A comprehensive assessment can help explain why a child or young adult is struggling with learning, attention, behavior, or social-emotional functioning. Our neuropsychological assessments evaluate memory, processing speed, attention, executive functioning, and academic skills, comparing performance to age- and grade-level peers to identify specific strengths and weaknesses. Midtown Psychology also offers psychoeducational and gifted assessments as well as autism assessments. Each evaluation concludes with a detailed feedback session and a practical report that families can use to guide treatment, school accommodations, and next steps.
