Children with ADHD often experience challenges with attention, impulsivity, and emotional regulation. These differences can impact school, relationships, and daily routines, and may lead to frustration for both children and caregivers.
At Hill Country Heart Counseling, I provide ADHD support for children in New Braunfels, TX through a child-centered play therapy approach that focuses on understanding the child as a whole, rather than trying to “fix” behaviors.
In child-centered play therapy, the focus is on building a strong, trusting relationship where children feel accepted and understood. Within this environment, children are able to explore their experiences, express emotions, and develop a stronger sense of self.
Rather than using directive or behavior-focused techniques, this approach allows children to:
- Develop greater self-awareness
- Strengthen emotional regulation over time
- Build confidence and resilience
- Experience a sense of control and competence
Children with ADHD often receive frequent correction in other environments. In therapy, they are offered a space where they can be fully themselves, which supports deeper emotional growth and long-term change.
I also work with parents to support understanding of their child’s needs and to foster connection and attunement at home.
I serve children and families in New Braunfels, TX and surrounding areas including San Marcos, Seguin, and Canyon Lake.
If your child is struggling with attention, impulsivity, or big emotions, therapy can provide a supportive space for growth, understanding, and connection.
