Counseling

Our licensed clinical professional counselors believe in using play-based, natural interactions to address:

• Emotional and Mental Health Issues

  • Anxiety and Depression: Addressing excessive worry, persistent sadness, fears, or social withdrawal.

  • Trauma and Loss: Helping kids process grief from a death, divorce, relocation, abuse, or other major life disruptions.

  • Self-Esteem: Working through identity struggles, bullying, and low confidence. 

  Behavioral and Social Challenges

  • Disruptive Behaviors: Managing anger, aggression, non-compliance, or oppositional habits. 

  • Social Difficulties: Improving communication, making friends, and resolving conflicts with peers or family members. 

  • School-Related Stress: Addressing academic pressure, school refusal, or sudden drops in grades. 

  Common Techniques Used

  • Play Therapy: Using toys and games to help younger children express feelings they cannot verbalize.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Teaching kids how to connect their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to build healthy coping skills. 

  • Family Counseling: Involving parents and family members to strengthen communication and build a supportive home environment. 

  Our counselors are trained to integrate a sensory-based approach to help children build the foundations needed to develop engagement and attention on which to build and expand emotional skills.
