Nest Child and Family Therapy

Picture
Nest Child and Family Therapy was started in 2005 by Sarah Ahlm with the idea that families should be able to receive care where they need it most.  Whether that be in our office, at home or in your child’s school, Nest therapists will work with you to maximize your child’s potential and create opportunities to strengthen family relationships.  All of our therapists are developmentally trained in cognitive behavioral therapy and specialize in enhancing your child’s skills through creative play and activities.  We are excited about our unique services and look forward to the opportunity to connect with your family. ​
"We came to Nest for their expertise with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to meet our son’s needs.  Emily established a strong connection and a critical trust.  She is empathetic, an active listener and patient. Emily uses these skills to motivate our son to do the socio-emotional work he needs to do in a supportive, positive way. With Emily’s assistance, we were able to get a neuropsychological and occupational therapy assessment to have the information we needed about our son to create a holistic approach. She has collaborated with the school and coordinated his multiple therapies to ensure everyone is on the same page and using the same strategies.  She has been an incredible resource for both me and my husband so that we can be the best parents possible for our son.  Our son has shown exponential growth in his flexible thinking, improved self-esteem, and social interactions with Emily’s support.  We cannot thank her enough!"
