Children
Jean Piaget said, "Play is the work of childhood." We believe that a child-centered and integrative approach to play therapy is how children can explore their mental health needs. When provided with a safe, comforting space and given the freedom to experientially access their feelings and life circumstances, children are able to learn skills that will empower them to navigate the world they live in with a sense of self-reliance and security.
Through consultation with our child therapists, caregivers can learn strategies and parenting techniques in order to more thoroughly and confidently meet the needs of their individual child. We value a collaborative relationship that nurtures continuity for the child across multiple environments and strengthens social/family systems.
