Counseling - Today’s children and teens face many challenges – at
home, at school and with friends. Poor school performances, temper
tantrums, social difficulties, sadness, worrying, eating disorders, lack of
confidence—these are all behaviors that children show us when they are
in need of some extra help. |
|
Art Therapy - Art therapy uses the combination of psychology
and art as a vehicle for self expression, healing, and growth. It is
especially designed to assist individuals of all ages who have suffered
trauma and loss by providing a way to access feelings or thoughts that
may be hard to express through words. |
|
Psychoeducational Evaluations - Psychoeducational assessments
help us gain an understanding of a child's cognitive, academic, social-emotional,
and behavioral functioning. The psychologists at JF&CS conduct a comprehensive
evaluation that integrates information from parents, teachers and testing data. |

who shares a one-on-one relationship with a child. The PAL volunteer is a
