The children I see often suffer without the ability to share their pain in words. I help them using Play Therapy because it encourages each child to share their world in the language of play, using toys like words (Landreth, 2002). Play Therapy helps children *learn to experience and express emotion, *cultivate empathy, *become responsible for their behaviors, *develop creative solutions, respect for others, and self acceptance, and *learn new social skills and relational skills with family. The one-way mirror also allows me to provide you with Filial Therapy skills. Filial Therapy teaches you to conduct special play sessions at home, becoming a Therapeutic Agent for your child. This option provides a smooth transition for the benefits of therapy in the office to be transferred to the home. I have created a special Play Therapy room with a one-way mirror that allows you to observe your child's sessions. I also have a traditional therapy room suitable for adolescent and adult individual therapy, family therapy, and marital/couples therapy sessions. Private entrance for confidentiality.
