Sadness, low mood, and withdrawal
When your child seems flat, hopeless, withdrawn, or unusually irritable.
Low mood in children rarely looks like adult depression. It can look like irritability, withdrawal, tiredness, or losing interest in things they used to love. We approach it with warmth, careful listening, and a plan built with the family.
- Mood, energy, and daily patterns
- Sleep, nutrition, and biology
- Losses, transitions, or ongoing stressors
- Safety and support at home
- Compassionate therapy for children and teens
- Pediatric evaluation when biology may be part of it
- Family therapy and parent support
