Children’s Therapy

A child’s struggles with difficult feelings, negative behaviors, or unhealthy relationships can impact the rest of his or her life.

That’s why FamilyTime Centers is proud to provide professional therapy services for children facing emotional or behavioral challenges in Studio City, CA.
