The Center for Pediatric and Adult Anxiety and Depression is dedicated to providing clients with effective treatment in combination with clinical expertise and consideration of client values and goals. Specifically, treatment interventions are based on a cognitive behavioral framework and go beyond teaching coping skills. Treatment helps the client gain awareness and insight into the factors maintaining patterns of unhealthy behavior and preventing them from living life in a way that is consistent with their values. Awareness and insight allow for the opportunity to make changes in the things within our control and accept and tolerate the uncertainty and discomfort attached to the things that are out of our control.Whether you are an adult, parent, or child, treatment teaches you how to be with emotional discomfort and move forward despite its presence rather than treating the associated thoughts and feelings as something to fear, avoid, or "get rid of." In working with children and adolescents, parents are always heavily involved in treatment and learn strategies on effectively responding to their children's behavioral and emotional needs and struggles. Having a high degree of parental involvement allows both the parents and child to gain confidence in their own ability to successfully face and manage these strong emotions and challenging behaviors.
