The Child Center of NY provides therapy and support to children and families struggling with a range of emotional and social difficulties. Their caring and qualified staff help clients build resilience, develop social-emotional skills, work through trauma, improve self-esteem, succeed in school, and develop coping skills that will help them handle challenges now and in the future. They offer culturally sensitive assessment and treatment/counseling services, including medication management and psychiatric evaluations (when applicable), by licensed social workers, psychiatrists, psychologists, and nurse practitioners. They also have substance use services for adolescents and adults.

The Child Center of NY is the Queens borough-wide provider of the Early Childhood Mental Health Network, a ThriveNYC initiative designed to provide mental health services and supports for families who have young children, ages 0–5, with mental health needs.

They have staff who speak two dozen languages who are ready to assist you in the language you speak. When you call the main clinic number (718-358-8288) you can listen to their options in English, Bengali, Chinese, or Spanish for assistance in reaching the services you need; you may leave a message in any language, and they will assist you in that language.
