Play Therapy

Play is to a child what verbal communication is to adults. This can present a problem for many children because most adults assume or insist they are able to use their words when expressing their point of view.

We use play therapy to bridge that gap and relate to our clients in a way that best suits their needs and limitations. Meeting them on their own level opens the door, allowing them to verbalize their feelings in a manner that is conducive to a healthy, happy life.

Children & Adolescent Services

Growing up in a rapidly changing world is not easy, it can present adolescents with several challenges which require them to deal with situations beyond their emotional and cognitive abilities. Young people face both peer and academic pressures, social media influences, shifts in the family (like divorce or relocation), the onset of hormones in adolescence and the ever-present challenge of managing their emotions. The potential issues and intense feelings run a wide gamut, and for many children and adolescents, this is the first time they have encountered and had to manage these emotions.

Our services are aimed at teaching coping skills while helping youngsters better understand what is going on inside of them. Whether they need a trusted advisor or simply a shoulder to lean on, our goal is to meet the unique needs of everyone who comes thru our doors.

CHILDREN & ADOLESCENT SERVICES ARE CURRENTLY FULL. WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENT FOR SERVICES AT THIS TIME.
