Child & Family Therapy

Child and Family Therapists have specific training in understanding the developmental and emotional needs of children and how to best work with them therapeutically. Often, children use the language of play or creativity to communicate their thoughts, feelings, and needs.  Rather than expect the child to adapt to the ways adults communicate, child therapists utilize play and other creative expression interventions to assist children and their families in communicating and connecting with each other. We believe it is important to work with the entire family system and partner with parents and/or their caregivers in the therapeutic process. The decision to integrate caregivers and the larger family system is based on each child’s unique needs and their age/developmental level.
