Meet Dr. Keller, Clinical Director, and her associates. Do you or your child feel isolated, alone, or trapped in cycles of making negative meaning out of life? Perhaps there's a change you want to make but you keep bumping against the same old patterns. My associates and I help people of all ages heal, grieve, and grow. Through the powers of play therapy, we help children develop a healthy sense of self and experience their power cooperatively (rather than competitively). We help parents heal old wounds and tend to unmet childhood needs so they can be present and available to help their children grow and develop.

Dr. Emily Keller specializes in play therapy, sand tray, and expressive arts and has post-grad training in working with couples, families, children, & groups. Dr. Keller supervises associate clinicians in their work with children and adults. When you send an inquiry, Dr. Keller or her associate will reach out to help match you with a clinician.

In our offices, we believe that every person has worth, value, and dignity. We believe in building a beautiful world through community and connection. We trust the therapeutic powers of play. We believe that when one person changes, the family system changes. Reach out to us today to start your family's journey.

Group Therapy for Children (5-6 y/o)

Hosted by

Emily Ruha Keller

Play therapy is a widely researched therapeutic modality used to support children’s growth and development while addressing a number of emotional and behavioral concerns. Group play therapy offers opportunities to work on social skills and boundaries with peers while in a therapeutic setting. Group play therapy allows the play therapist to support more children with the powers of play therapy. Group therapy for young children presents opportunities to learn that they can get their needs met directly and cooperatively rather than indirectly (acting out behavior) and through competition.
