Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Welcome to our FAQ section! We've compiled a list of commonly asked questions about our therapeutic services for kids, teens, and families. If you don't find an answer to your question here, please feel free to reach out directly.

1. What age groups do you serve?

We cater to a diverse age group, ranging from children (ages 3-10) with play therapy, preadolescents (ages 11-13) with activity therapy, and teenagers (ages 13+). Additionally, we offer specialized sessions for families and parents.

2. How do I know if therapy is right for my child or family?

It's natural to have reservations. If your child or family is facing persistent challenges, changes in behavior, or emotional distress, therapy can be a beneficial space to understand and address these concerns. You can also schedule a consultation with one of our therapists to assess the fit.

3. What is play therapy and how does it work?

Play therapy is a therapeutic approach designed for children. Kids naturally express themselves and process experiences through play. In this therapy, trained therapists use play to help children communicate feelings, understand emotions, and address challenges.

4. How is family therapy different from individual therapy?

While individual therapy focuses on the concerns of an individual, family therapy involves multiple family members. It aims to address family dynamics, improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen bonds.

5. How long does a typical therapy session last?

A standard session is usually 50 minutes. However, the duration can vary based on the therapeutic approach and specific needs of the client(s).

6. How often should we attend therapy sessions?

The frequency of sessions depends on the unique needs of the client(s). Weekly sessions are common initially, but as progress is made, sessions might become bi-weekly or monthly. Your therapist will discuss and recommend a suitable frequency.
