Signs of Depression
Depression among kids is on the rise. Some say as much as 21% in teen boys over the past 2 years. The warning signs of depression and possible suicide ideation can be vague, especially during the teenage years, when it’s often perfectly normal to go through phases of moodiness and withdrawal. And experts in the field say serious mental health problems can manifest themselves differently from person to person: anger in one person, chronic headaches in another, excessive crying in others. If you feel your child suffers from depression and has any of the following, please call for assessment.
- Stomach aches
- Frequent headaches
- Wanting to stay home from school
- Isolation
- Acne
- Dizziness
- Bowel problems
- Bedwetting
- Frequent colds or illnesses

Testimonials
“My granddaughter was severely traumatized from family alcoholic dynamics with major issues of abandonment, neglect, criminal family abuse and stranger sexual assault. Professional diagnoses are: depression, suicide attempts x2, PTSD & anxiety.
School issues included aggressive behaviors, suspension & expulsion. Since we started working with Anna my dear granddaughter has improved about 80% over several months.
Without the weekly therapy sessions with Anna Williams — and often daily contact via texts — my granddaughter would not be alive today. And I would not have had the education I needed to support her and myself.”
- S. Wightman
“Families of children with special needs often have a challenging task of being their child’s “quarterback”: trying to coordinate services, relay information from one provider to another, and make sure they have found all the resources they need.
You often feel alone and not sure which direction to head next. It is a daunting task! When we began working with Child Wellness Consulting Group, it was the first time we felt like we had a team of experts guiding us.
With their knowledge and expertise, they could provide necessary services, recommend additional evaluations, collaborate with other professionals, and coordinate our services. It was such a relief to have an organized effort to diagnose, treat, and, in some cases, eliminate many of the issues we were facing.
Through their services, we started to see real, measurable progress and get answers to questions we could not figure out before. We feel supported and headed in the right direction to provide the best future for our child emotionally and academically.”
