Welcome to PeaceTree Kids

“When little people are overwhelmed by big emotions, it’s our job to share our calm, not join their chaos.”
“We've forgotten what it's like not to be able to reach the light switch. We've forgotten a lot of the monsters that seemed to live in our room at night. Nevertheless, those memories are still there, somewhere inside us, and can sometimes be brought to the surface by events, sights, sounds, or smells. Children, though, can never have grown-up feelings until they've been allowed to do the growing.” - Fred Rogers

How can I Tell If My Child Needs Therapy?
How Can I Tell If My Child Needs a Psychological Assessment?
Parents should seek out psychological testing if their child is engaging in challenging behaviors or
showing concerning symptoms and/or having difficulties in their daily life. These include:
– Struggling in school or experiencing a drop in academic performance
– Difficulty concentrating
– Acting out in class
– Social challenges/quirks/behaviors that seem peculiar
– Frequently missing school or not completing work
– Bullying or being bullied
– Overwhelming feelings of anxiety, fear, anger, sadness or hopelessness
– Frequent or dramatic mood changes
– Substance use
– Interest in understanding/identifying the way that their child/teen learns best to provide them with holistic support that builds upon their strengths and strategies to address some of their challenges.


Our ASD assessments include Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-2
(ADOS-2) as well as the Autism Diagnostic Interview (ADI-R) which are
considered to be the ‘gold standard’ for diagnosing Autism. The ASD
testing consists of two sessions: 1) Session One is a three hour
interview with the client’s caregiver (specifically someone who is able
to provide information about the client’s first, 5 years of
development), 2) Session Two is an hour long assessment with the
child/adolescent. At the conclusion of the testing, the evaluator will
develop a comprehensive report based upon the findings from the testing
period. The evaluator will schedule a feedback session with the
caregiver and the client which will review the results of the testing,
diagnostic information, and
specific-individualized recommendations that will provide the child/adolescent with the most
effective strategies and resources for support.
