Boston Child Therapy: Professional Therapy for Children, Adolescents, and Parents

Child Therapy in Boston and Cambridge, MA

Internationally renowned psychologist, Arch Hart, recently wrote that children today experience more change in their first year of life than persons experienced throughout their entire lives—only a few generations ago.

My name is Dr. Anthony Centore, Founder of Thrive Boston Therapy. While I cannot know what your specific situation is, or how you came upon this Child Therapy page, if you are reading there words right now, you are perhaps in one of the following groups.

* You are parent or guardian struggling with parenting your child or children

* You are noticing some things about your child that worry you, and you have found yourself asking—“Is my child ok, or is there something wrong with my child?”

* Something difficult has recently happened, and you want to make sure your child is able to cope.

* Something difficult is going to happen, and you want to make sure your child is prepared

As I write these different situations parents can find themselves in with their children, I am realizing that as broad as these categories are, they still cannot completely encompass the areas of difficulty and concern parents often find themselves in.

Boston Child Therapy and Adolescent Therapy

When providing child therapy, a clear understanding on human development is necessary. A therapist needs to be able to identify normal developmental behavior from abnormal development. Hence, helping a child who is 2 is drastically different from helping a school aged child, which is drastically different from teen counseling and adolescent therapy.

Sometimes what parents worry about is a normal part of child/adolescent development. If you are wondering if what you are experiencing as a parent is part of normal growth and development, contact us at 617-395-5806, and we will help you to set up a consultation with one of our experienced therapists.
