Online Therapy & Support for Ages 2-17
As a virtual children’s therapist, I offer online therapy for children who need support with anxiety, big emotions, school stress, friendships, family changes, grief, self-esteem, or other challenges.
Meeting with a virtual child therapist allows your child to participate from home, where they may already feel more comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. For some children, that can make it easier to relax, talk, and engage in therapy.
Virtual therapy can also make things easier for your family. You don’t have to add another drive, waiting room, or appointment location to an already busy week. Online sessions can often fit more easily around school, activities, work schedules, and family routines.
During virtual child therapy, I keep sessions age-appropriate and interactive. Depending on your child’s age and needs, I may use conversation, games, drawing, activities, coping exercises, or other tools to help them express what they’re feeling and work through challenges.
I often help children with concerns such as:
Anxiety, worry, or fears
Big emotions or frequent frustration
School stress
Friendship or social concerns
Family changes
Grief or loss
Low self-esteem
Difficulty coping with change
When helpful, I involve parents in parts of the therapy process, so you have a better understanding of what your child is working on and how you can support them between sessions.
Online therapy may not be the right fit for every child, but for many families, it can be a comfortable and practical way to access consistent support. If you’re wondering whether virtual therapy may be a good fit for your child, I’m here to help you explore that option.

Reasons to Consider Virtual Therapy for Your Child
You may consider online therapy for your child if you’ve noticed changes in their mood, behavior, confidence, relationships, or ability to cope with everyday stress.
Virtual therapy may be helpful if your child is:
Worrying often or seeming more anxious than usual
Struggling with school stress or academic pressure
Having frequent emotional outbursts or difficulty calming down
Pulling away from friends, family, or activities
Going through grief, divorce, a move, or another family change
Having trouble with friendships or social situations
Feeling insecure, discouraged, or highly self-critical
Struggling to talk about what they’re feeling
Having difficulty adjusting to a new stage of life
Experiencing stress that is starting to affect home, school, or relationships
You don’t have to wait until your child is in crisis to reach out. Therapy can also be helpful when you simply notice that something feels different and your child could benefit from extra support.
Virtual therapy can make getting started feel easier for some families. Your child can meet with me from a familiar space at home, while you avoid extra driving, waiting rooms, and scheduling stress. For children who feel nervous in new environments, online therapy may also reduce some of the pressure that can come with attending an office appointment.
The goal is to give your child a supportive place to talk, learn coping skills, understand their emotions, and feel more confident handling what they’re going through.
