“I’m scared things won’t get better for my child.”
You see your child struggling, and no matter what you do, it doesn’t feel like enough.
They’re irritable and snap over the smallest things. They get angry out of nowhere, and sometimes say things like, “I’m disappointing everyone” or “I’m just bad.” You’ve tried all the suggestions, but you can’t find a way forward.
At Weber Counseling Services, we help kids work through big emotions like fear, anger, and guilt, so they can feel safer, calmer, and more in control.

What Is Child Therapy?
Child therapy creates a space where kids can safely explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors through play, creativity, and age-appropriate conversations. At Weber Counseling Services in Corona, we help children work through emotional regulation struggles, separation anxiety, PTSD, and behavioral challenges, both at home and at school.
Using Play Therapy, CBT, DBT, and EMDR, we help kids process big emotions, build coping skills, and gain confidence in their daily lives. Therapy also helps parents better understand their child’s needs and how to support their progress at home.
When your child is facing:
- Constant worry, fear, or panic
- Low self-esteem or negative self-talk
- Social anxiety, panic attacks, or OCD
- ADHD or attention struggles
- Mood swings or frequent outbursts
- Behavioral challenges at home or in school
- Autism or sensory processing difficulties
- Nightmares or sleep disruption
- Trauma or loss
- Big life changes
We meet them where they are, and help them grow from there.

Areas Child Therapy Can Support
At Weber Counseling Services, we don’t believe in “fixing” kids; we believe in supporting them. Our therapists meet your child with empathy, creativity, and clinical expertise. Through child therapy in Corona, we help:
Manage anxiety & stress
If your child is always worried or on edge, we help them learn calming tools, identify fears, and gain control over their emotions. Through play therapy and evidence-based techniques, they’ll feel more capable and confident in their world.
Learn how to regulate their emotions
Outbursts and big feelings don’t make your child “bad.” We help them name emotions, understand triggers, and use kid-friendly coping tools to manage frustration and anger more effectively.
Improve their confidence & self-esteem
If your child is hard on themselves, struggles socially, or fears making mistakes, child therapy in Corona can help them build a stronger sense of identity and develop more positive self-talk.
Strengthen peer & family relationships
We help kids learn communication skills, practice empathy, and navigate conflict, whether with friends, siblings, or caregivers. We also offer parent support or coaching when needed.
Work through behavioral struggles
When your child is acting out, there’s usually a reason. We help them build insight, self-control, and better decision-making so they can succeed at home and in school.
Heal from trauma or grief
Whether your child has experienced a loss, family change, or something traumatic, we help them process what happened in a way that feels safe and empowering.
Together, we’ll help your child move forward with confidence and strength.

Tools We Use In Child Therapy
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Our team uses evidence-based modalities personalized to your child’s needs. Here are some approaches we use in child therapy in Corona:
Play Therapy
Children communicate through play. This approach allows us to explore feelings and behaviors in a way that they naturally understand.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Using DBT skills like mindfulness, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance, we help kids manage intense feelings more effectively.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps children identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and learn new ones that support positive outcomes.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR helps children process trauma and anxiety without needing to talk about everything in too much detail.
We’re focused on equipping your child with age-appropriate tools that truly work.
Here, your child belongs.
