Gaia Counseling's team of therapists is passionate about helping children, adolescents and families thrive. Many children struggle with emotional regulation, school and social anxiety, and behavioral challenges. Play therapy and other expressive therapeutic modalities can help kids and their families be with their emotions in healthier ways. We have seen first hand how giving children and teens a safe space to process their inner emotional world, while keeping parents involved every step of the way, can not only transform their way of communicating but can also help families come together in ways that promote growth and healing.
We have several wonderful therapists on our team who specialize in supporting children and adolescents with neurodivergence, including ADHD and ASD, as well as those who are exploring their sexual and/or gender identities. Gaia Counseling also offers family, parent, couples and individual adult therapy as important avenues to help our clients flourish.
We offer a warm, genuine, collaborative approach in an accepting and unbiased environment. Whatever your particular challenges, we likely have someone on our team who can help you through them.

Play therapy and other expressive therapies like art therapy are the gold standard for helping children and adolescents. Play is a child's first language and is the best method for communicating with most children. Through play, a child can explore and process difficult emotions that may be impossible to express in any other way.
