Child and Teen Services

When your child is struggling, the last thing you need is to feel like you’re piecing together care on your own. At Sasco River Center, we make it easier – for you and for your child.

All-in-One Support

From evaluations to therapy, coaching, and specialized interventions, our team provides a full spectrum of services under one roof. You don’t have to juggle multiple providers – we coordinate care seamlessly so your child gets the support they need, faster.

Trusted Clinical Expertise

We’ve served over 8,000 families and partnered with more than 25 schools. Our multidisciplinary team includes licensed psychologists, therapists, occupational and speech-language pathologists, and executive function coaches – each with deep expertise and a commitment to results.

Clarity, Answers, and Personalized Care

We meet every child and family with empathy and warmth, without judgment. We specialize in getting to the root of the problem – whether it’s a learning difference, emotional challenge, or developmental concern – and creating a clear, actionable plan forward.

High Standards, Local Roots

With offices in Darien and Wilton, Connecticut and deep relationships with local schools, we combine world-class care with a community-based feel. Our families trust us not just as clinicians – but as partners.

Whole-Family Support

We believe helping your child means supporting your whole family. From marriage and family therapy to parenting coaching, we’re here to equip you with tools, reduce stress, and restore connection at home.

Diagnostic & Psychoeducational Testing

Get to the root of learning, emotional, or behavioral challenges with comprehensive evaluations, including cognitive functioning, learning differences, attention issues, and more.

Executive Function Coaching

Help your child build the skills they need to succeed – at school and in life. Our coaches focus on time management, organization, planning, emotional regulation, and goal-setting, using strategies tailored to your child’s age and needs.

Psychotherapy for Children, Teens, and Young Adults

Our licensed therapists provide a warm, supportive space where children, teens, and young adults can express themselves, learn coping skills, and work through challenges such as anxiety, depression, social struggles, and life transitions.

Occupational Therapy

Whether your child is struggling with motor coordination, sensory processing, or daily tasks like handwriting and dressing, our occupational therapists create personalized treatment plans that build confidence, independence, and life skills.

Speech & Language Therapy

We help children strengthen their communication skills—from articulation and expressive language to social interaction and classroom participation. 

Marriage & Family Therapy/Parenting Support

You don’t have to navigate this alone. We partner with parents to reduce power struggles, support emotional regulation at home, and establish routines that work. Through coaching and therapy, we help families create calmer, more connected relationships.

Medication Management

Some behavioral health conditions are most effectively treated with a combination of psychotherapy and medication. Our Board-Certified Psychiatrist and Board-Certified Nurse Practitioners are available to assist families in discussing medication options.

Let’s Create an Action Plan That Works

We’re ready when you are. Whether you’re seeking answers, support, or a full team to guide your child’s next steps – Sasco River Center is here.
