Helping Kids and Teens Thrive, One Step at a Time

Being a kid or teenager today can feel overwhelming. Between academic pressure, social dynamics, emotional ups and downs, and big life transitions, young people often face challenges they don’t know how to express—let alone process.

At Bear Company Counseling in Omaha, we specialize in helping children and adolescents build emotional resilience, express themselves in healthy ways, and work through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and more. We also support parents and caregivers in understanding and connecting with their child throughout the therapeutic process.

When to Consider Counseling for Your Child or Teen

You may notice changes like:

• Sudden mood swings or frequent emotional outbursts

• Withdrawal from friends, family, or activities

• Trouble in school or declining academic performance

• Sleep or eating changes

• Signs of anxiety, sadness, or hopelessness

• Difficulty adjusting after a move, loss, divorce, or traumatic event

These can be signs that your child or teen is struggling internally—even if they can’t put it into words. Counseling offers a safe space to explore and process those feelings with someone who understands.

Common Concerns We Help With

Our Omaha-based therapists support children and teens dealing with:

• Anxiety and panic symptoms

• Depression or sadness

• Behavioral or attention challenges (ADHD, ODD)

• Bullying and peer issues

• Family changes, divorce, or conflict

• Trauma or abuse recovery

• Grief and loss

• Self-esteem and identity issues

Every young person is unique, and we tailor our approach to meet them where they are.

How Our

Our Child and Teen Therapy Approach

At Bear Company Counseling, we create a compassionate, age-appropriate environment where kids and teens feel safe to be themselves. Our therapists use techniques such as:

• Play Therapy: For younger children to express emotions and experiences through play.

• Expressive Arts Therapy: Creative outlets like drawing, music, and movement to explore feelings.

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To help youth recognize and manage thoughts, behaviors, and emotions.

• Family Therapy and Parent Support: Strengthening communication and healing relationships at home.

• Trauma-Informed Approaches (like EMDR or Brainspotting): For children and teens with a history of trauma.

We know it takes courage to start therapy. That’s why we prioritize trust, consistency, and genuine connection with each child and teen we serve.
