Online Therapy Services We Tested and Recommend to Support Kids and Families
Mental health conditions don’t just impact adults; they can affect kids as young as 3.[1] In fact, diagnoses of mental health issues in children and adolescents have increased exponentially in recent years in the United States. In the last six years alone, over 6 million children have been diagnosed with ADHD, over 5.8 million have been diagnosed with anxiety, and nearly 3 million have been diagnosed with depression.[2] The good news is the sooner your kid is diagnosed, the faster they can get the help they need. Sometimes, though, finding that help can be tricky, to put it lightly. There aren't enough child therapists or child psychiatrists to meet demand in the United States—especially if you live in rural or remote places that experts sometimes refer to as "therapy deserts."[3]
