PLAY THERAPY

Neurologically, children’s brains are constantly growing and developing, however, they are not matured enough to participate in talk-therapy alone.  Play Therapy is an effective, research-based modality of child therapy that allows children to express their thoughts, feelings and behaviors through developmentally appropriate forms of communication - play.  Play is a child's natural form of self-expression.  Play therapy can help support children by holistically addressing each component of cognitive, social, and emotional development.    ​ 

As a Registered Play Therapist™, Brittany has specialized training, skills and knowledge to conduct therapeutic play therapy sessions in which children are able to process their experiences through play.  Play therapy sessions are held in-person in a clinically established playroom setting. ​ 

Parents and care-givers are key stakeholders in the therapeutic process of play therapy.  Prior to and following play therapy sessions with your child, Brittany will meet with parents and care-givers to discuss presenting concerns, track goals for therapy, and monitor on-going progress.
