Play Therapy

Play Therapy is a therapeutic approach that helps children express emotions and resolve issues through play. By engaging in play, children can communicate and explore their feelings in a safe, supportive environment, fostering emotional and psychological healing.

Animal Assisted Play Therapy ®

Animal-Assisted Play Therapy combines the benefits of animal-assisted therapy with play therapy to help children express emotions and address psychological challenges. By interacting with animals in a playful and therapeutic setting, children feel more relaxed and open, enabling them to explore their feelings, enhance social skills, and build confidence. .

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is a psychotherapy treatment focused on learning the skills to manage emotional difficulties. The curriculum is split into four key areas of learning: Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured therapy that helps individuals process and overcome trauma and distressing experiences. Through guided eye movements or other bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain reprocess traumatic memories, reducing their emotional impact and facilitating healing. This evidence-based approach is effective for treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and other emotional issues.
