Play Therapy for Children Ages 3–9
Children naturally communicate through play—and play is at the heart of healing. Using the Synergetic Play Therapy® model, we provide a safe, nurturing space where your child can express feelings, explore experiences, and develop tools for self-regulation.

In Synergetic Play Therapy, the focus isn’t just on “playing out” problems—it’s on helping children learn to connect with their bodies, understand their emotions, and build resilience. Through intentional play, children discover healthier ways to cope with big feelings, reduce anxiety, and strengthen relationships.

This approach supports children experiencing challenges such as anxiety, behavioral struggles, trauma, or difficulties with transitions. Our goal is to help your child feel understood, empowered, and better equipped to navigate their world.

Activity-Based Therapy for Ages 10+
We believe healing can happen through movement, play, and creativity. Our activity-based therapy approach combines games, physical activities, and interactive play with counseling techniques to help children, teens, and young adults build resilience, manage emotions, and strengthen social and coping skills.

By engaging the body and mind together, we create a supportive space where therapy feels less like “talking” and more like experiencing. Whether through teamwork challenges, movement-based exercises, or playful problem-solving, clients develop confidence, reduce stress, and discover new ways to connect with themselves and others—all while having fun.

This approach is designed for ages 10 and up and can be especially effective for those who thrive in active, hands-on environments.

EMDR Play Therapy helps children heal from difficult experiences using play, movement, and creativity. By combining the proven benefits of EMDR with the natural language of play, children can safely process big feelings, reduce anxiety, and build resilience—all in a supportive, child-friendly environment.

Our parent and caregiver counseling services are designed to help families overcome challenges related to communication, conflict, and other issues. Our licensed therapists work with families to identify strengths and weaknesses, improve communication and problem-solving skills, and develop a stronger sense of cohesion and support for their children. 

Our grief counseling services can help you cope with the loss of a loved one. Our licensed therapists provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your feelings of grief, gain insights into your behavior, and develop strategies to manage your grief and move forward.
