The most important elements in determining the quality of psychological services are the relationship between the client and therapist and the experience of the professional.  Throughout a collective 40+ years of experience providing psychological services to children, adolescents, young adults, parents, teachers, and administrators, we have learned a few things...  

We know that students go to school and parents work, so we hold office hours from 3 pm to 9 pm Monday through Thursday, and some Saturdays during the day/evening.

We know that time is a valuable resource, so offer parent training in conjunction with child/adolescent treatment.  This will also promote behavioral change and generalization of new skills.

We know that children and adolescents learn "experientially," so offer opportunities for our clients to work through challenges in unique and fun ways above and beyond "talk therapy."

We understand that social skills are best learned in social situations, so offer groups to assist our clients to explore and practice social interactions.

We know that difficulties experienced by one can affect others throughout their surrounding systems (i.e., family, friends, school, etc.).  Therefore, we encourage communication and shared knowledge to promote generalization and change.

And, we know that, no matter what the diagnosis, symptoms, or severity of difficulties, we all have strengths to share and connections worth developing.

We are here to understand.  We are here to promote change.  We are ready to begin. 

WE HAVE MOVED!!! We are now located at 23234 Red River Dr. in the office park close to the intersection of Kingsland Dr. and Grand Parkway.
