What brings you here

Big feelings can show up in different ways.

You may notice worry, behavior changes, difficulty at school, or a harder time with everyday transitions. Our therapists use play and creative activities to explore what your child is experiencing.

  • Worry & fear

    Anxiety, uncertainty, and feelings that can be difficult for a child to explain.

  • Emotions & behavior

    Big reactions, frustration, and learning ways to express and manage feelings.

  • School & friendships

    Social stress, changes at school, and challenges connecting with others.

  • Changes in the family

    Moves, divorce, new siblings, and adjusting to different routines.

  • Grief & stressful experiences

    Loss, difficult events, and the feelings that can follow.

  • Confidence & connection

    Self-esteem, communication, and building trust in relationships.

What to expect

Play, connection, and room to grow.

Sessions are shaped around your child’s developmental needs. Toys, art, sensory materials, and imaginative play give your therapist different ways to connect with your child.

  1. 01

    Begin with a parent meeting.

    Share what you’ve noticed, your child’s background, and what you hope therapy can help address.

  2. 02

    Build a relationship through play.

    Your therapist gets to know your child and supports expression, emotional awareness, and coping skills at their pace.

  3. 03

    Keep parents involved.

    Check-ins offer a chance to discuss progress, communication, and strategies to use at home.

Our approach. Our clinicians draw on child-centered play therapy, strengths-based approaches, trauma-informed care, and emotional skill-building. For an 11-year-old, the balance of play, creative activities, and conversation is tailored to developmental needs.

Can my child receive counseling in Spanish?

How much does play therapy cost?

The fee depends on the clinician and appointment type. Review our current rates and ask about the initial parent appointment as well as ongoing sessions. If using insurance, confirm the plan, clinician, and any requirements before booking. Our insurance guide can help you prepare those questions.

Does my child need to explain what is wrong?

Your child does not need to arrive with a clear explanation. The therapist uses play, creative activities, and conversation as appropriate to get to know your child and understand their needs.
