Specialized Counseling for Children
Every child processes emotions differently. Some act out. Others withdraw. Many simply don’t have the words yet to explain what they’re feeling.
That’s where specialized kids counseling in Palm Beach Gardens makes a difference.
At Juno Counseling, we:
- Work with children ages 4–17
- Tailor therapy to your child’s developmental stage
- Use creative, engaging methods instead of traditional talk therapy
- Collaborate with parents to support progress at home and school
Our team includes experienced child therapists and a trusted child psychologist Palm Beach County families rely on for personalized care.
Early support can make a meaningful difference in a child’s emotional development. Addressing concerns early helps children build resilience, confidence, and emotional awareness that carry into adulthood.

It can be tough to express anger as a kid. Our child therapists in Palm Beach Gardens can help figure out if anger is driving your child’s behavior and teach children and parents strategies for calming children’s anger.
Autism
We provide therapy for children and teens on the autism spectrum. Our therapy practice in Palm Beach Gardens has a state-of-the-art sensory room to help neurodivergent kids calm sensory overload and engage in behavior-based therapy.
Body Image
Body image issues in children are starting younger and younger these days. Our qualified child therapists in Palm Beach can help your child feel good about themselves and not engage in potentially harmful behaviors. Our pediatric nutrition consultant can work with you to help your child maintain healthy eating habits.
Child-Parent Relationship Therapy
Child-Parent Relationship Therapy is a structured, play-based therapy used to help children with emotional and behavioral concerns. This therapy focuses on helping parents implement changes that can help their children improve long-term.
Bullying
It is sad that bullying is all too common. Whether bullying happens in person or online through social media, the effects on children can be devastating. If your child is exhibiting behaviors like isolation, not wanting to go to school, frequent stomach aches or headaches, or dropping grades, they might be experiencing bullying.
Our skilled child therapists in Jupiter can help children who have been bullied feel better about themselves and regain their self-confidence. Therapy can help with anxiety or depression resulting from bullying.
Co-Parenting
Parenting after divorce can be challenging. Coparenting therapy in Palm Beach can help you find the style that works for you and work together for your child.
Coming of Age
Growing up comes with lots of fun experiences and its fair share of challenges. As a parent, you do your best, but kids often don’t listen. Having another trusted adult, like a child therapist can help kids have a space to vent their feelings and learn to make the right decisions. Our child psychologist in Jupiter can work with your child on any challenges they might face.
Confidence/ Self-Esteem
Some kids can lack confidence or self-esteem. This can be from bullying, bad social media influence or other reasons. When working with a child therapist in Jupiter, children can learn to feel good about themselves, improve their self-esteem, and process any underlying issues.
Depression
It’s hard to imagine that even children can feel depressed, but it is possible. If your young one is sluggish and tired a lot, does not want to participate in activities they once loved, or shows sign of withdrawing or self-harm, they might be dealing with depression. We provide therapy for child and adolescent depression in Palm Beach Gardens.
Fears/ Phobias
Children can develop all kinds of fears – fear of the dark, dogs, the doctor, shots/needles, going to school, being in bed alone, and more. Our child therapists in Palm Beach Gardens will work alongside them to figure out the root cause of the anxiety and provide children and families tools to manage fears.
Fighting
Some children get into frequent fights at school or at home. Therapy can help children find better ways to manage their emotions and offer families the tools needed to understand, reduce, and prevent child anger outbursts at home.
Mood Problems
Kids can fall into a low mood or experience lots of mood swings. This can be due to an underlying psychological or social problem, hormones, or their diet. Our Palm Beach child therapists take a holistic approach and work with our pediatric nutritionist to find out the root cause of children’s mood problems and mental health concerns.
Parent Coaching
Parents handle so much at once but sometimes they could use some guidance. Issues like tantrums, refusing to eat, refusing baths, resistance at bedtime, etc. can be frustrating. Parent coaching in Florida teaches parents how to handle all these issues and more, tailored to their specific needs.
School Problems
School problems can include not wanting to go to school, not paying attention in class, failing to do homework, trouble taking tests, social anxiety, oppositional behavior, trouble making friends, and more. A child psychologist in Jupiter can help your child overcome many of these issues and help parents understand what is contributing to the problems.
Sensory Processing Issues
Sensory issues can include sensitivity to sound, light, touch, food, or texture. Children experiencing sensory overload can experience mood swings and exhibit oppositional behaviors which can be managed by managing their sensory input and response to it. We will look at the root cause of these issues, and provide the tools needed to ensure your child’s comfort.
Sibling Problems
Unfortunately, siblings don’t always get along. Sibling rivalry or competition for attention can sometimes get out of hand. We have child therapists that work with siblings (individually and together) to help them work out problems. They don’t have to be best friends at every stage in life, but sibling relationships can be improved through professional counseling.
Sleep Problems
Children, like adults, can have a hard time falling asleep and staying asleep. Children can experience fear of being alone in bed or their rooms, fear of the dark, difficulty falling asleep, frequent awakenings at night, nightmares, bedwetting and other problems. Child counseling can address all these issues and help children sleep better.
Social Media/Technology Use
For some kids, social media and technology use can get out of hand. Kids can spend hours a day on their devices. A child counselor can help children find other outlets besides technology and help parents better regulate their children’s use of technology and social media.
Concierge Child Counseling
In some instances, we can provide child therapy on site in Palm Beach County. We can come to other provider offices (doctors, physical therapists, occupational therapists) and some schools. We provide onsite child therapy in Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, North Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Palm Beach Island, and Westlake.

We use engaging, evidence-based therapies designed specifically for children.
Play Therapy
Play is a child’s natural language. Through structured play, children express thoughts and emotions they may not yet have words for.
Our play therapy in West Palm Beach and Palm Beach Gardens helps children:
- Process emotions safely
- Build problem-solving skills
- Improve behavior and social interactions
This method is especially effective as play therapy for behavioral issues, allowing children to work through challenges in a safe and engaging way.
Art Therapy
Creative expression allows children to explore feelings in a non-verbal way. Art therapy can be especially helpful for children dealing with anxiety, trauma, or communication challenges.
Child-Focused CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
We adapt CBT techniques to be child-friendly, helping kids:
- Recognize unhelpful thought patterns
- Develop coping skills
- Build emotional regulation
Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)
This approach strengthens the parent-child relationship while improving behavior. Parents are actively involved, learning tools they can use at home for lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions About Child Therapy
What age is appropriate for child therapy?
Child therapy is appropriate for children as young as 3–4 years old using age-appropriate methods like play therapy and art therapy. At Juno Counseling in Palm Beach Gardens, we typically work with children ages 4 and up, adjusting our approach based on developmental needs.
How does play therapy work for children?
Play therapy uses toys, games, and creative activities as tools for communication. Children naturally express emotions through play, allowing therapists to understand and guide them. This approach helps children process feelings, develop coping skills, and work through challenges like anxiety or behavioral issues.
What are signs my child needs therapy?
Common signs include persistent anxiety, frequent tantrums, sleep issues, withdrawal, sudden behavior changes, school difficulties, aggression, or regression. If something feels off, it’s worth exploring. A child therapist can help assess what your child may need.
Do you involve parents in child therapy sessions?
Yes. Parent involvement is essential. We provide regular consultations, coaching, and, when appropriate, structured approaches like PCIT where parents actively participate in sessions. This helps reinforce progress outside of therapy.

Yes. We provide specialized ADHD therapy for children in Palm Beach Gardens and nearby areas, including West Palm Beach and Jupiter. Our approach includes behavioral strategies, emotional regulation skills, and parent support to improve daily functioning.
