Child psychologists at Weston Family Psychology focus on diagnosing and treating mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders in children and adolescents.

From anxiety and depression to trauma and developmental issues, we provide personalized care tailored to your child’s needs, supporting their journey toward well-being.
As a parent, it can be difficult to know when your child's struggles go beyond typical challenges and require professional support.
If your child is experiencing persistent emotional or behavioral issues that interfere with their daily life, it may be time to consider consulting a child psychologist. Common signs that indicate your child might benefit from professional help include:
Emotional Distress: Frequent sadness, anxiety, irritability, or mood swings that seem disproportionate to the situation.
Behavioral Changes: Noticeable changes in behavior, such as increased aggression, withdrawal from family and friends, or acting out in school.
Academic Struggles: Sudden declines in school performance, difficulty concentrating, or complaints of feeling overwhelmed by academic tasks.
Social Difficulties: Trouble making or maintaining friendships, avoidance of social situations, or extreme shyness.
Physical Symptoms: Frequent headaches, stomachaches, or other physical complaints that don’t have a clear medical cause but may be linked to emotional distress.
Traumatic Experiences: Any significant life changes, such as divorce, loss of a loved one, or exposure to trauma, that your child is struggling to process.
Early intervention is crucial. Addressing these issues with a professional can help your child develop healthy coping strategies, improve emotional regulation, and build resilience.
