Psychologists are the only licensed professionals qualified to conduct psychological assessments. These evaluations go beyond symptom checklists, providing a comprehensive, science-backed understanding of a child’s or young adult’s challenges. This leads to precise diagnosis and tailored recommendations for treatment that set the foundation for real progress.
ERP is a highly effective therapy for OCD and anxiety that helps children gradually confront their fears in a safe, controlled way. By resisting the urge to engage in compulsions, they learn that anxiety naturally decreases over time, empowering them to break free from the cycle of fear and avoidance.
CBT is a widely used, evidence-based approach that helps children identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. By teaching practical skills to manage emotions and respond to challenges, CBT equips kids and teens with tools to take control of their mental well-being.
Our CBT takes place with a licensed, board-certified clinical child and adolescent psychologist specializing in ADHD, anxiety, and OCD in kids and teens, as well as OCD in young adults.
SPACE focuses on guiding parents in responding to their child’s anxiety without reinforcing avoidance behaviors. By reducing accommodations and fostering independence, this approach helps children build confidence in managing their own anxiety while strengthening the parent-child relationship.
PMT equips parents with practical strategies to manage behavioral issues in children, particularly those with ADHD or oppositional defiant behavior. This evidence-based program focuses on reinforcing positive behaviors, establishing structure, and improving communication between parents and their child.
CBIT is an evidence-based therapy designed for children with tic disorders, commonly associated with ADHD. It helps kids become aware of their tics and teaches them alternative responses to manage or reduce them, leading to improved control over their symptoms and daily functioning.
For children struggling with sleep problems, behavioral sleep interventions focus on creating healthy sleep routines and addressing habits that disrupt sleep. This approach empowers families to establish better sleep hygiene, leading to improved rest, focus, and overall well-being.
Targeted strategies Proven methods for lasting change
When it comes to mental health care, many people don’t realize the significant differences in training and expertise between a psychologist and other types of therapists. While general therapy can be helpful for concerns like mild anxiety or depression, specialized or complex issues require a deeper level of expertise—one rooted in science, advanced assessment, and evidence-based interventions.
At Back in Charge, our approach is rooted in science, utilizing proven methods. As a licensed, board-certified clinical psychologist, Dr. Green has undergone 5–6 years of intensive doctoral-level training, including residency, with a strong emphasis on integrating research-backed methods into practice. This depth of expertise ensures the most effective, targeted care for pediatric and specialized concerns like OCD, ADHD, anxiety disorders, and behavioral challenges.
