Picture
At Helping Children, our playrooms are truly exceptional, each thoughtfully designed to reflect the developmental stages of children and their unique needs. Within these playrooms, we create an environment that fosters exploration and allows children to find the toys and materials that resonate with their psychological needs and life experiences. The setup is orderly and predictable, encouraging a sense of safety and comfort as children embark on their therapeutic journey.
 
One of the key aspects of our playrooms is the freedom they provide for messiness. We understand that children express a wide range of emotions, and through play, they can find a powerful outlet to explore their feelings and experiences. By engaging in this creative process, they develop self-control, gain insight into their emotions, and learn about boundaries and limit setting.
 
Children's therapy is distinctly different from adult therapy, as children may not have the words to articulate what is troubling them. Instead, they communicate their inner world through play. Our play-based therapy approach empowers children to express their experiences, perceptions, and emotions in a way that feels natural and comfortable for them.
 
In these specially designed playrooms, Dr. Johnson works closely with each child, creating a secure and supportive space for them to explore, process, and grow. Through the language of play, we can gain valuable insights into a child's thoughts and feelings, helping us tailor the therapeutic interventions to meet their individual needs. We believe that play is not just a pastime for children but a profound method of communication and healing. It allows children to make sense of their world, build resilience, and develop coping skills.
 
At Helping Children, we are dedicated to making a positive impact on the lives of children and their families. Our playrooms stand as sanctuaries of self-expression, where children can embark on a transformative journey of understanding, healing, and growth. If you believe your child could benefit from our play-based therapy or have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. We are here to support your child's emotional well-being every step of the way.
