Worried About Your Child’s Emotions or Behavior? Kids Therapy in Weston, FL Can Help Them Grow With Confidence

All kids have big feelings — but when those emotions start getting in the way of school, friendships, or family life, it may be time for extra support. You might be noticing your child acting out, shutting down, withdrawing from friends, or struggling to keep up with the demands of everyday life. As a parent, it’s tough to watch your child suffer and not know how to help.

At Full Circle Therapy, we specialize in kids therapy in Weston, FL, offering gentle, effective support for children facing emotional, behavioral, or developmental challenges. Our therapists work closely with both kids and their families to build emotional strength, social skills, and healthy coping strategies — in a space where your child feels safe, seen, and supported.

Kids therapy (also known as child therapy or pediatric counseling) helps children understand and express their emotions, work through difficult experiences, and learn how to manage challenges in healthy, age-appropriate ways.

Unlike adult therapy, kids therapy often includes play, art, stories, and movement — not just talking. These creative methods help children process what’s happening inside when they may not have the words to explain it yet.

We tailor our approach to your child’s age, personality, and unique needs, using a warm, patient, and strengths-based approach.

Every child is different, and it’s normal for kids to go through emotional ups and downs. But if certain behaviors persist or interfere with daily life, therapy may be a helpful next step. Look for signs like:

• Frequent meltdowns, tantrums, or emotional outbursts
• Withdrawal, isolation, or low self-esteem
• Sudden changes in sleep, appetite, or energy
• Difficulty making or keeping friends
• Separation anxiety or fear of school
• Trouble focusing or sitting still
• Aggressive or defiant behavior
• Excessive worry, sadness, or perfectionism
   

You don’t need to wait for things to get “bad enough” — early support can make a big difference in your child’s long-term emotional health.

Our child therapists support children ages 3–12 through a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges, including:

• Anxiety and fears (e.g., social anxiety, phobias, school refusal)
• ADHD and impulse control challenges
• Autism spectrum-related emotional support
• Behavioral issues at home or in school
• Emotional regulation and anger management
• Grief, loss, or family transitions (divorce, relocation)
• Friendship difficulties and social skill development
• Trauma or adverse childhood experiences (ACEs)
   

No concern is too small. If your child is struggling — we’re here to help.

For younger children, we primarily use play therapy and expressive techniques to connect, engage, and create emotional breakthroughs. Play is your child’s natural language — and through it, they can explore emotions, solve problems, and rehearse new ways of being in the world.

Our child therapists may use:

• Therapeutic play techniques (e.g., puppets, games, dolls, sand tray)
• Art and drawing activities to help children express themselves
• Stories and role-playing to explore emotions and social situations
• Mindfulness and calming tools to promote self-regulation
• Parent coaching to support consistency and progress at home
   

Every session is customized to meet your child where they are — emotionally and developmentally.

As children grow into their tween years (ages 9–12), we shift our approach slightly to reflect their increasing self-awareness and cognitive development. Therapy with this age group may include:

• More direct conversation and reflection
• Tools for managing peer pressure, school stress, or self-esteem
• Support for navigating friendships, bullying, or online/social media challenges
• Emotion coaching and problem-solving strategies
• Gentle exploration of identity, confidence, and personal growth
   

We help tweens build internal resources they’ll carry into adolescence — while reinforcing their sense of resilience and self-worth.

Absolutely — we believe therapy is most effective when caregivers are included.

At Full Circle Therapy, we maintain a strong partnership with parents and guardians while respecting your child’s privacy and sense of autonomy. This includes:

• An initial parent session to understand your concerns and goals
• Ongoing communication about progress and themes (as appropriate)
• Coaching on how to support your child at home
• Strategies to improve family dynamics, routines, and discipline
• Referrals to parenting resources if needed
   

We work together as a team — your voice is always valued here.

Yes! In addition to one-on-one therapy, we offer social skills groups for boys and girls of various ages. These small, supportive groups help kids learn and practice:

• Making and keeping friends
• Reading social cues and taking turns
• Managing frustration, rejection, and big emotions
• Navigating conversations and group settings
• Building confidence and empathy
   

Our groups are ideal for children with ADHD, autism, anxiety, or social challenges, and they’re led by experienced therapists in a fun, structured environment. We also provide updates and tips for parents to support your child’s growth beyond the group.
