Help for Young Minds
Compassionate counseling designed for children, teens, and adolescents
What we treat with young people
Children and adolescents face real challenges that deserve real solutions. Shaletha Richard works with young clients to address the issues that matter most in their lives, from attention and focus to managing emotions and navigating school.
ADHD assessments and skill-building
Developing strategies for attention, organization, impulse control, and emotional regulation with parent collaboration for school success.
Emotional regulation skills
Teaching young people to identify, understand, and manage emotions through coping skills training, mindfulness, grounding strategies, and expressive techniques.
School and peer challenges
Support for academic stress, bullying, peer conflict, social skills struggles, and school avoidance through confidence-building and improved functioning.
Processing Trauma with Evidence-Based Care
Young people who have experienced trauma need space to process what happened and rebuild safety. Shaletha uses trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, and expressive techniques to help youth work through difficult experiences at their own pace.
Strengthening Bonds Within the Family
Family conflict and miscommunication can weigh on everyone. Sessions create a safe place where families listen to each other, work through disagreements, and rebuild the trust that matters most.
Improved communication
Reduced conflict and tension

Equipping Parents with Tools and Understanding
Parents want to help their children succeed but sometimes need guidance on what works best. These sessions offer practical strategies, insight into your child's behavior, and ways to reinforce progress at home.
