Child Therapy

Play-based, developmentally appropriate care for young children.

Child Therapy
Overview

Children often express big feelings through play and behavior rather than words. Our child therapy uses play, art, and connection to help kids feel safe, understood, and equipped to handle what's hard.

Early support matters. The skills children build now — naming feelings, calming their bodies, asking for help — shape how they handle stress for the rest of their lives. Parents are a key part of the work and learn tools to use at home, too.

Signs this might be for you

  • Frequent meltdowns, big anger, or sudden shutdowns
  • New fears, clinginess, or trouble separating
  • Changes in sleep, appetite, or stomachaches with no clear cause
  • Trouble at school, with friendships, or after a family change

Our approach

  • Play and expressive arts therapy
  • Parent collaboration and coaching
  • Coordination with schools when helpful

What to expect

  1. 1A parent intake to hear the full picture before meeting your child
  2. 2Play-based sessions in a calm, kid-friendly space
  3. 3Regular parent check-ins with strategies to use at home
