About Us :

Talbot Child Psychology (TCP) offers individual, family, group, and school-based therapy to children and adolescents on the Eastern Shore and aims to help them cope with difficult emotions, respond adaptively to conflict, and navigate a constantly changing social environment. At TCP, we understand that no two individuals are alike. We offer treatment plans tailored to your child or adolescent's needs and what will work best for your family. Through caregiver training, TCP offers guidance to caregivers on raising youth who struggle to manage their social, emotional, and behavioral responses to developmental and environmental challenges.

At select schools in Talbot County, TCP provides direct school-based mental health services to children. Using this model, we support children both in and outside the classroom. Children learn and apply strategies to respond adaptively to social and emotional challenges in the environments where they occur. TCP also works collaboratively at these schools with counselors, social workers, teachers, administrators, and caregivers to address children's mental health needs.
