About Us

A practice that sees the whole child

Courageous Kids Counseling was founded with a simple belief: every child deserves a therapist who truly understands them. Located in the heart of Nyack, we provide a warm, safe space where kids can be themselves — without judgment.

Our team specializes in child and adolescent mental health, drawing from evidence-based approaches like CBT, play therapy, and parent-child interaction therapy. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all treatment — every plan is as unique as the child receiving it.
