Counseling4Kids Torrance

Creating paths for children and families to thrive, Counseling4Kids serves ages 0–21 through prevention, therapy, psychiatric services, and sessions in clinics, schools, and homes. Conditions treated include anxiety, depression, trauma, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), eating disorders, autism spectrum disorder, grief, developmental delays, and behavioral concerns.

Shape Treatment Around Youth

Clinicians shape each plan around the child’s age, symptoms, relationships, culture, and daily environment. Counseling4Kids uses child-parent psychotherapy for ages 0–6, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) for ages 3–18, interpersonal psychotherapy for depression for ages 12–21, managing and adapting practices for ages 0–21, and seeking safety for ages 13–21. Individual counseling, family therapy, psychiatric evaluation, psychological testing, medication management, and case management address needs across settings.

Coordinate Care Across Systems

School partnerships, home sessions, parent workshops, psychoeducation, and early intervention extend services into daily life. The Multidisciplinary Assessment Team (MAT) of Counseling4Kids joins child welfare, mental health, and community partners to evaluate the physical, emotional, developmental, medical, and educational needs of children entering foster care. Parents, educators, therapists, case managers, and doctors share information and coordinate plans, while culturally responsive services help families understand options and strengthen communication at home.
