Anxiety Counseling
Are they irritable and cranky?
Does your child have difficulty going to bed at night?
- Do they get anxious in new situations or around people?
- Do they have excessive worry most days of the week?
- Do they have trouble sleeping at night or is there sleepiness during the day?
- Do you notice restlessness or fatigue during waking hours?
If you have a child who struggles with anxiety, you know how difficult it is to watch them struggle. Their anxiety doesn’t just impact them, it impacts your family too. Some forms of anxiety your child may be experiencing include:
- Generalized Anxiety
- Phobias
- Panic Attacks
- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
- Social Anxiety
- Separation Anxiety

At MVP, we have counselors who specialize in working with children with anxiety. Depending on the age of your child and what is most therapeutically appropriate, we are able to incorporate play, talk therapy, or EMDR. We are grateful to have training in the treatment modalities that best help kids work through their anxious feelings.

Take the Next Step
When you have kids it can be easy to dismiss challenges as a “stage” or “phase,” and sometimes they are. The difficult thing about anxiety is that it tends to build on itself and spiral into a bigger problem. If you think your child has anxiety, please call 720-583-9332 to schedule an appointment or a free 20-minute phone consultation.
