Youth & Teen Services

We provide comprehensive counseling services designed specifically for children aged 2 through their teenage years. Our skilled therapists offer age-appropriate interventions and support to address a wide range of developmental and emotional needs. We are committed to creating a nurturing environment where children can express themselves and thrive.

Our providers have completed, or are completing, rigorous training and supervision to achieve certification as Registered Play Therapists (RPT). Our utmost focus is on utilizing developmentally appropriate and evidence-based play therapy strategies in the treatment of children.  We take pride in offering the highest level of expertise among our counselors, ensuring the utmost professionalism in our services. We are committed to providing this exceptional quality at the most affordable rates.  It our our priority to make mental health support accessible to all children and families.

Our philosophy regarding counseling for teens centers on a holistic approach that acknowledges and respects their developmental stage. We understand that teens have a crucial need for play and exploration, which we integrate into our therapeutic framework to facilitate expression and growth. Simultaneously, we believe in treating teens as capable individuals, fostering autonomy and responsibility in their mental health journey. By balancing their need for play with the recognition of their evolving maturity, we aim to create a supportive environment where teens feel understood, empowered, and equipped to navigate life's challenges.
