Tapestry's mission is to provide quality child/adult therapy both in person and via therapy video sessions at your location. Further, to expand the knowledge and experience of other professionals working with children and families by means of workshops and clinical consultation. Regulation of intense emotions and thoughts occurs in childhood and almost all mental health disorders started in childhood.
Parents will feel confident and competent in responding to their child's thoughts/feelings. Internal regulation of emotions and thoughts occurs in childhood as a result of repeated interactions between the child and one or more adults soothing and calming the child. Unfortunately, many adults did not have parents with skills to emotionally respond to their child's internal distress.

Sometimes children are unable to speak or make sense of the problems or difficulties they experience in their life. As a result, they act out in ways that are both confusing and frustrating to their parents. Tapestry views parents as experts on their children and works in partnership with parents. Through a variety of therapeutic techniques Tapestry can assist the child/teen to develop new and more appropriate ways of responding to problems.
Most individuals have developed strategies to cope with the ups and downs of life. They are able to manage their thoughts, emotions and behaviors and be about the business of living. Unfortunately, at certain points in people's lives they struggle with thoughts, feelings or behaviors intruding on their ability to experience success and pleasure in life.
