Kids house provides family and individual counseling and therapy services to children who have suffered the trauma of physical and/or sexual abuse, neglect or been witness to domestic violence. Years of research demonstrates that children who experience abuse in their childhood but who do not receive therapy or counseling, suffer long term consequences that impact their social, emotional, academic, and cognitive development. Moreover they commonly suffer from lack of trust, guilt, embarrassment and depression as a result of not processing the abuse. Therapy allows child victims the opportunity to heal from the abuse or neglect that they have endured. Through extensive counseling, children are able to cope with the trauma they have experienced and learn appropriate ways to display love and affection on the way to full recovery.
