We Treat Self-Harm Behavior

Cutting, burning, ripping off scabs, pulling out hairs, skin scratching, head banging, are all self-injury behavior. Self-injury is a coping mechanism to manage overwhelming emotional pain, feelings of anger, sadness, and emptiness. Self-injury is addictive as it releases the body’s beta-endorphins, giving the girl a general feeling of well being.
We Treat Trauma from Physical & Sexual Abuse

Physical abuse is any act that results in physical injury to a child or adolescent, even if the injury was unintentional. Physical abuse often results from physical punishment that goes too far or when a parent or caregiver lashes out in anger, leaving long lasting emotional trauma.
We Treat Reactive Attachment Disorders

Reactive Attachment Disorder begins before the age of five and often happens with adopted children. The girl may respond to caregivers with a mixture of approach, avoidance, and resist their comforting or may exhibit frozen watchfulness. On the other hand, she may also be excessively familiar with strangers. The parent-child relationship is not normal.
