Therapy Sessions for Children

At this time, therapy sessions are only available to children age 10 and older. All sessions are virtual until further notice.

Because of their age-related language and conceptual limitations, children tend to have difficulties expressing their emotions, feelings, and frustrations. They are frequently unsure of exactly how they feel but understand that something does not feel right, or that a certain aspect of life feels difficult.

Art therapy provides children with the opportunity to use different types of materials to access, process, understand, and convey their complex feelings. No previous art experience or ability is required.

Materials used in art therapy include:

  • Markers / pencil crayons / crayons
  • Clay
  • Paint
  • Stickers
  • Model magic
  • Pastels – oil & chalk
  • Collage
  • Puppetry
