WHY WE EXIST
The mental health crisis in America is accelerating at unprecedented rates.
Around 20% of children and teens ages 3 to 17 in the United States are affected by a mental, emotional, developmental, or behavioral condition. Suicidal behaviors have increased more than 40% than in the decade before 2019, and it's estimated that 20 million children and adolescence in the United States meet the criteria to be diagnosed with a mental health disorder.
This is not OK.
Families and children need and deserve better support, yet finding the best mental health and developmental resources for children and adolescents can be a challenge. Kids Therapy Finder exists to meet that challenge.
There is real hope and help available.
Many mental, developmental, and behavioral issues are treatable or manageable, and many families are seeing improvements and experiencing higher quality of life with the right behavioral health treatment.
We want the same thing.
We want your family life to be as harmonious and healthy as possible. We want your child(ren) to have their best chance to enjoy life and achieve more academic, professional, and overall life success and happiness.

OUR STORY
Pre-Pandemic, community resource fairs were a go-to place for families to connect with pediatric therapists and other resource partners. Today, these events have become less frequent, but family needs have not changed. Children still need professional help, and parents still need support for finding qualified service providers for their children.
Developed by a Social Worker
Kids Therapy Finder was founded in 2013 by Michelle Rigg - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Play Therapist, and Parenting Coach with over 30 years of experience helping families thrive. She has extensive experience working with kids, teens, and families in a variety of professional roles and settings, including:
From working with military families, adoption cases, or families with special needs or disabilities, Michelle has seen it all and helped thousands of families find answers, support, and peace. Currently, Michelle is in private practice in Texas, and she offers parenting consultations through Kids Therapy Finder. If you would like Michelle's help with learning how to navigate the pediatric care system, please schedule a consultation.
This website is dedicated to our founder's sister, Marissa (1971-2017), a wonderful mother, sister, daughter, and aunt, who lived out her journey with juvenile diabetes with courage, a sense of humor, and an unwavering faith in God. You are loved and missed beyond words.
Forever in our hearts until we meet again...and to Michelle's parents, who showed fierce, unconditional love advocating and caring for her... Phil 4:13
