The treatment types that we primarily use are play therapy and EMDR. For kids, we also offer playful EMDR. We believe that this right-brained approach to navigating complicated or traumatic events is the most compassionate and effective way. However, some individuals are not interested in play-based approaches and we make space for that by offering traditional talk therapy.
