We utilize play, art, and yoga therapy with most of our kids. Most of our therapists regularly use mindfulness, DBT, CBT strategies to help clients decrease anxiety, improve their mood, increase self-confidence, and increase emotional intelligence. We love EMDR principles and at least half of our staff are trained in EMDR therapy. We firmly believe in the value of assessment to plan treatment.
