Who Can Benefit from Play Therapy?
Play therapy is effective for children facing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges including:
Anxiety and OCD
Play therapy offers a developmentally appropriate way for children to understand their worries or fears, and develop brave new skills.
Trauma and Grief
Trauma impacts areas of the brain involved with language and memory, making it especially difficult for children to process upsetting experiences with words. Play therapy provides an effective and developmentally appropriate way for children to heal from traumatic events.
Behavioral and Social Challenges
Play therapy helps children become more responsible for their behavior, learn to express emotions effectively, cultivate empathy for themselves and others, and develop more successful social strategies with peers and family members.
Life’s Stressors
Change can be especially dysregulating for young children. Play therapy helps children navigate emotions related to new or difficult experiences.

The Therapeutic Playroom
For children, play is more than just fun—it’s the way they make sense of the world. Imagine a playroom where each toy becomes a word in a story they’re longing to tell. Here, in our therapeutic playroom, children find a safe, accepting space where they’re free to be themselves, surrounded by toys and materials chosen with care to help them express their emotions, worries, and dreams.
Our mission is to create a nurturing space where children can heal and grow while supporting the loving adults who guide them - every step of the way.
We believe in the power of play
to transform lives.
Every child has a spark within them - a light that shines even in their most challenging moments.
At The Healing Playroom, we nurture that spark, helping children overcome challenging behaviors, find their voice, express their emotions, and build the reslilence they need to thrive.
Together with their families, we create a space where healing begins, hope grows, and every child’s light can shine brightly.
