Our RAFT team will complete a thorough assessment of your child’s history, concerns, and goals. This part will include asking you to complete paperwork on behalf of your child and asking you to fill us in on how we can best support your family. Our trained specialists will make recommendations about how to best meet your goals. This might include 1:1 work between our therapist and your child. Often, 1:1 work is best complimented by some sessions that include a parent, other primary caregiver. Additionally, sessions that include additional members for family therapy can be incorporated as helpful as well. Sessions can be flexible around what best fits your family and goals.
Working with therapists at RAFT Counseling means this is an open conversation. You know your child and family best and we want to know what areas you see that would be helpful to focus on. Often, it is important for your child to have a safe space for them to practice independence and autonomy. But this is often blended with family work and can always be flexible to fit your family's needs.
