Offers guidance and support for a range of emotional and behavioral challenges facing children and young adults. As the only independent health system focused entirely on kids, Children’s Wisconsin provides therapy through its Craig Yabuki Mental Health Center to offer comprehensive care for individuals from infancy through early adulthood. This care is available through a network of locations, including the Mequon Clinic, where pediatric experts diagnose and treat conditions like anxiety, depression, trauma, and anger management. Care is delivered through office visits and convenient video visits across the state, helping families find support close to home when they need it most. Cultivate Confidence and Skills Gaining a clear path to wellness, families work with a dedicated team committed to helping the whole family heal and grow. This approach uses different kinds of counseling, such as individual, family, and group sessions, to help a child learn about their moods, feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. The team works with parents and patients to create a written treatment plan with specific goals for practicing new skills and communication at home and at school. All counselors are highly qualified, licensed by the state, and hold at least a master’s degree, bringing extensive experience in child and family health. Heal from Life’s Difficulties Discovering care that extends beyond typical office appointments, families access programs designed to address unique needs and difficult life circumstances. Counseling is available for sensitive areas like grief and loss, helping children and parents navigate complex emotions after the death of a loved one or separation. There is also dedicated support through trauma-informed therapy for children who have experienced abuse or other trauma. The system provides specific services for families focused on adoption and foster care transition. When a child is struggling, help is available. Families can request an appointment today to learn how their pediatric specialists can help them thrive.
