Does This Feel Like Where You Are Right Now?
You love your child deeply — and you're watching them struggle, unsure how to help. Whether they're shutting down, acting out, or carrying something they can't put into words, you don't have to figure it out alone.
You're exhausted from managing meltdowns, school struggles, or sibling conflict — and still feeling like you're not doing enough.
You lie awake wondering if what your child is going through is "normal" or something more.
You feel like you're walking on eggshells, afraid to say the wrong thing.
You think maybe they'll just grow out of it — but deep down, you know something needs to change.
Your child isn't broken. Neither are you. Sometimes kids — and families — just need a safe place to put things down.

How Therapy Can Support Your Child
Therapy for children isn't about teaching them to behave better. It's about helping them understand what they're feeling — and giving them the tools to move through it.
Reduce anxiety, worry, and emotional outbursts
Build confidence and a stronger sense of self
Learn age-appropriate coping skills they'll carry for life
Navigate big life changes — divorce, loss, school transitions
Strengthen the connection between your child and your family
Feel more settled — at home, at school, and with friends
All sessions are offered in-person in Concord, MA.
Therapy Services for Children and Families in Massachusetts
Therapy offers a space where kids can express themselves freely. I tailor sessions to each child's needs using play therapy and evidence-based methods. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, I focus on supporting both the child and their family.

Individual Child Therapy
Through play, creativity, and gentle conversation, I help younger children make sense of their world — and find steadier ground.
Adolescent Therapy
Teens deserve a space that's entirely theirs. I work with adolescents on anxiety, identity, peer relationships, and the pressure of growing up.
Parent Consultation & Support
You're your child's greatest resource. I offer dedicated sessions to help you understand what your child is experiencing and how to support them at home.
A Safe, Supportive Space to Feel Understood
Many of the kids I work with have never had a place where they don't have to hold it together. Where they can be messy, confused, or scared — and that's okay. That's what therapy can be.
I work at your child's pace. Using a blend of play therapy, evidence-based practices, and genuine curiosity, our sessions are shaped by what your child needs — not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) specializing in children and adolescents, I'm committed to supporting the whole child — including the family around them.

Hi, I'm Elisha.
I'm a licensed child and adolescent therapist serving kids and families in Concord, MA. I work with children and teens who are anxious, overwhelmed, or going through something hard — and the parents who love them and don't know what to do.
What drives my work is simple: I believe every child deserves to feel understood. I bring warmth, clinical experience, and a deep respect for how complicated childhood can actually be.
You don't need to wait until things get worse to ask for help. If something feels off, that's enough of a reason to reach out.
What to Expect When You Start Therapy
Starting therapy — especially for your child — can feel like a big step. Here's what it looks like.
"My daughter had been struggling with anxiety for two years before we found Elisha. Within a few months, she was sleeping through the night and asking to go to school. I don't know how to explain what changed — but something did."
