Brightline’s therapy programs
You’re not the only parent who feels like they’re focused on one child and ignoring everything (and everyone) else.
It’s okay if you’re not sure what your child needs.
As you read this, you may not be able to determine if your child is going through a phase or if they’re struggling with a bigger problem. And you don’t have to figure it out alone. Care starts with a diagnostic evaluation, which is a detailed, clinical conversation where a Brightline care team member can gain a deep understanding of what’s going on with your child. In the follow-up session, you’ll get answers, a care plan recommendation, and relief. Depending on what your child is experiencing, they may begin care in one of Brightline’s therapy programs:

When is general therapy or psychiatry right?
These are some of the signals, behaviors, and emotions that we see the most from kids who benefit from therapy or psychiatry. If you’re seeing some of these difficulties (or others) at home, we can help you understand why and address them.
Persistent low mood, lack of motivation, withdrawal from typical activities, hopelessness, thoughts or comments about wanting to hurt themselves
Difficulty coping with reminders, flashbacks, and avoidance of the things/situations related to a traumatic event and/or difficulty adjusting to a change in their environment (e.g. a move, divorce, death of a loved one)
Physical symptoms without an identified medical cause
Trouble coping emotionally with a chronic condition or new onset illness
Sustained difficulties with everyday asks and tasks like potty training, eating a variety of foods, and getting good quality sleep
