Helping Children Reach Their Fullest Potential
Anxiety and Mood Disorders are Increasingly Common in Children
Emotional health is just as important as physical health for helping children thrive. Many kids experience anxiety, depression, ADHD, or trauma, and environmental stressors like school challenges, social pressures, or family conflict can also make it harder to cope.
At The Ross Center, we help children, adolescents, and their family members manage mental health concerns, including:
- Anxiety, phobias, and social worries
- Childhood depression
- Separation anxiety and school refusal
- Adjustment challenges related to school or life changes
- ADHD
Our specialized team of child psychologists, therapists, and psychiatrists offer age-appropriate, evidence-based treatment for children as young as 2 years old. We teach behavioral strategies and coping skills that reduce symptoms and support emotional growth.
Children and adolescents are facing more anxiety and stress than ever before, often relating to family conflict, peer pressure, bullying, social media, or academic demands. While occasional fears and sadness are normal for every child, they can become overwhelming and significantly impact a young person’s life. Up to 12% of children are affected by anxiety disorders, with symptoms often appearing as early as pre-school age.
