What Is Child Therapy?
Child therapy is psychotherapy designed to help kids understand their feelings, build coping skills, and navigate challenges at home, school, and in relationships. Sessions are age-appropriate and often include creative or play-based elements to support communication.
Childhood can be full of joy—but also full of overwhelm. Your child might be crying before school, having meltdowns that come out of nowhere, or suddenly pulling away from friends and family. Maybe they’re worrying constantly, or acting out in ways you can’t seem to understand.
According to the CDC, 1 in 5 children experience mental health challenges each year. The truth is, your child isn’t “too sensitive” or “overreacting.” They’re communicating through emotions—and they need help putting those feelings into words.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. At Moorestown Therapy Collective, we create a space where kids can feel safe enough to open up, and parents can finally exhale.
You Don’t Want to Watch Them Struggle Anymore
There comes a point when you know your child needs more than reassurance. Maybe you’ve tried talking, rewards, routines—but nothing seems to stick. You just want your child to feel happy again.
You deserve support that understands what your child is going through—and gives your family the tools to move forward.
The Quiet Struggles That Bring Families Here
When clients reach out for Therapy for Kids, they often describe feelings that sound like this:
“My child gets overwhelmed so easily, and I don’t know why.”
“They’re having trouble making friends and feel left out.”
“Bedtime turns into a battle every night.”
“They used to be so confident—now they just seem sad.”
Will Parents Be Involved in Child Therapy?
Yes, parent involvement is often part of effective child therapy. Depending on age and needs, therapy may include parent check-ins, family sessions, or caregiver support.
We aim to give parents practical tools while also protecting your child’s privacy and trust in therapy.
At Moorestown Therapy Collective, we know your child isn’t broken—they’re trying to make sense of a world that feels too big sometimes. Our role is to help them feel seen, safe, and capable again.

Tatyanna Landell
MAP, Intern
Counseling as a chance to slow down and reconnect with yourself and the natural world.
Tatyanna helps children, adolescents, and young adults find calm and confidence by drawing on Feminist theory and Ecopsychology. She treats therapy as a collaborative process where kids are the experts on their own lives, and she leads with empathy as she explores how culture, family, and personal experiences shape how they feel and function. Whether your child is facing trauma, stress, grief, or anxiety, Tatyanna offers a kind, affirming space to heal and grow.
Candice Buchler
LAC/LAPC
“Diversity is not the exception, it’s the norm.”
Candice supports children as they navigate emotional, behavioral, relationship, and developmental concerns. She believes clients are the experts of their own lives, and her first step is building a trusting, genuine relationship so kids feel safe opening up. Working from a multicultural, strengths-based, and client-centered perspective, Candice helps children build hope, positivity, and resilience, both in session and in their relationships at home and school.
Child Therapy FAQs
How do I know if my child needs therapy?
If your child seems persistently anxious, overwhelmed, reactive, withdrawn, or struggling at school or at home, therapy can help. Many families also seek support during transitions or family stress.
How many sessions will my child need?
It depends. Some children benefit from short-term, skills-based therapy, while others do better with ongoing support.
Will my child have to “talk the whole time”?
No. Sessions are age-appropriate and may include activities that help children express themselves comfortably.
Do you offer telehealth for kids?
Telehealth availability depends on your child’s age, needs, and therapist fit. We can help you decide what works best.
Healing trauma can strengthen communication, emotional awareness, and overall well-being across many areas of life.
