Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning.
- Fred Rogers
Our therapists utilize a warm, supportive, playful approach that allows children to feel at ease. Play therapy is a proven therapeutic modality that allows children ages 3-11 to grow, learn, heal and thrive. Children often do not have the verbal abilities to express their feelings. Play therapy, conducted by one of our trained play therapists, offers children the opportunity to process and assess appropriate coping skills, behaviors and worldviews. At IMPACT we provide integrative play therapy for a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, behavioral difficulties, coping with family conflict, and trauma. Our play therapists utilize a range of psychotherapy approaches including psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and family systems interventions. We will work with your family to strengthen relationships between children, parents, and siblings and provide you with tools to support your child’s growth and development.
