Does Your Child Need A Therapist?

Send a text

Knowing when and how to seek mental health support for children can be one of the hardest decisions for any parent, guardian or caregiver.  In this episode of the Queens of Social Work podcast, we’re joined by Queen Tiyanna and Queen Tabatha — both experienced clinical social workers who specialize in working with children, adolescents and families.

Together, we discuss the early warning signs that a child or teen may need therapy, how mental health struggles often show up differently than you expect and practical ways to get your child the support they need.

Whether you’re wondering if your child might benefit from therapy or you’re a social worker helping families navigate this journey, this episode offers real-world guidance, compassion and critical insights you won’t want to miss.

Tune in to better understand the signs, reduce stigma and take next steps toward emotional wellness for the children in your life.

Social workers of color face immense challenges—systemic racism, underfunding, and overwhelming caseloads. They work tirelessly to support others but often lack the support they need. That’s why we created the Queens of Social Work Podcast—a lifeline and safe space for social workers of color to vent, share, laugh, and find the resources they need to thrive.

The  QOSW Daily Journal and our Royally You Interactive Journal for yourself will help you get all of your thoughts out and reflect on what’s next for you. For all of the budding social workers and those wanting to know more about social work in a healthcare setting, check out our Guide for ER Social Workers also for sale on Amazon and go to our website queensofsocialwork.net for your queens of social work merch!
