Masks must be worn for in-person sessions. Materials are disinfected between sessions. Virtual sessions are also available.
Kimberly Leighton, CCLS at Play Warriors, Inc. supports children going through a difficult life circumstance. Most young children are unable to express their strong emotions using only words. They can, however, process their feelings in their play using toys and manipulatives, making art and music, and acting out in dramatic play and more! Certified Child Life Specialists (CCLS's) are experts in child development, psychology, medical care, and all things FUN! CCLS's provide a supportive and nurturing relationship in a safe environment, teaching coping skills, relaxation strategies, in a strength-based model.
With over twenty years of experience working with young children, I bring a wealth of knowledge, assisting families with the best care possible. Visit: www.playwarriorsinc.com or email info@playwarriorsinc.com today!
Without support, these life experiences may impact a child’s physical and emotional development and can sometimes lead to poor self-esteem, anxious feelings, and fears. I support families for in-person sessions, virtual sessions, in-home support, medical office visits, and school observations/visits. I also provide parent coaching and support.
