Anxiety in Children and Adolescents in East Setauket, NY

---

It’s normal for children and teens to worry at times — but when anxiety becomes constant, overwhelming, or interferes with daily life, professional care can make a difference.

Family life changes, school changes, trouble with friends, romantic turmoil and bullying are some of the events that can trigger anxiety in children and adolescents.

At Resilience Psychiatry, we help children and teenagers understand their worries, manage fears, and build healthy coping skills.
Our child-focused, family-centered approach creates a safe space for open communication and steady progress.

Led by Dr. Jessica Carbajal Cáceda, a board-certified Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist, our practice provides compassionate, bilingual care tailored to each child’s unique needs.

Our care starts with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation involving both the child and parents.

We tailor each plan to meet the developmental and emotional needs of the patient, which may include:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to manage anxious thoughts and behaviors
• Family involvement to create supportive home strategies
• Medication management, when clinically appropriate
• Collaboration with school counselors or therapists
• Telepsychiatry sessions for flexible follow-up and consistency
  

Our goal is to help children and teens feel calmer, more confident, and capable of handling life’s challenges.
