Childhood and adolescence come with big feelings and constant change — and kids aren’t born knowing how to manage stress, anxiety, or life’s curve-balls. Most children need a little help learning how to handle challenging emotions, and it’s not always easy for them to explain what’s wrong.
That’s where pediatric therapy comes in. Through one-on-one counseling and peer group sessions, our therapists help children and teens develop healthy coping strategies and emotional awareness. With the high demand for pediatric therapy, this service is offered exclusively to Wee Care Pediatric patients.
If you feel your child could benefit from therapy, contact our office to request a referral from your Wee Care primary care providers. Our therapists work hand-in-hand with your child’s medical team to ensure care is coordinated and whole-person focused.
There’s no shame in needing support—and no need to wait until things feel overwhelming. We’re here to remove the stigma and make getting help feel normal, positive, and even empowering for kids and teens.
The demand for child and adolescent mental health support is rising across Layton, Syracuse, Roy, and Kaysville. We’re meeting that need head-on, offering a range of services that include:
One of the most common mental health concerns in children, anxiety can show up in many ways—from school struggles to social withdrawal. Our therapists help kids understand what they’re feeling and work toward practical, age-appropriate solutions.
When a child is struggling with depression, the whole family feels it. We collaborate with pediatric providers to create tailored care plans, which may include therapy, lifestyle strategies, and—when appropriate—medical support.
Attention and focus issues can affect every part of a child’s life — school, home, friendships, and confidence. Therapy can offer kids new skills to stay on track, whether or not medication is part of their plan.
Sometimes, the most powerful healing happens in community. Our group programs and therapeutic classes give kids, tweens, and teens a chance to connect, learn from others, and feel less alone in their challenges.

We brought our newborn daughter in for her one-week checkup and had such a great experience! The doctor was incredibly kind, took time to answer our questions, and made us feel so comfortable as new parents. Everything from check-in to the visit itself was super easy and smooth. We’re really happy we chose Care Pediatrics!

We believe mental health works best when it’s not siloed. Our licensed therapists collaborate closely with in-house pediatricians, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and other care providers—offering unified treatment plans and real-time coordination that helps children thrive.
This approach helps us monitor progress, adjust treatment as needed, and ensure your child gets the best support — all under one roof.
Our therapists primarily work with patients referred by our in-house pediatricians. Availability may be limited, and wait times can vary.
We accept most private insurance plans. Please confirm your mental health coverage directly with your provider. At this time, we are not contracted with Medicaid, Managed Medicaid, or Cigna.
Our typical wait time for new therapy assessments is around 3-6 weeks. We’re actively working to grow our team and reduce this time frame.
Our therapists do not prescribe medication but collaborate closely with pediatricians and psychiatric nurse practitioners who can manage prescriptions as part of an integrated treatment plan.
In most cases, yes. The therapist who conducts your child’s initial intake will continue providing ongoing care.
