— Child Counseling —
Big feelings, small humans.
Play-based and developmentally-grounded therapy for kids — paired with family support — to help children process, communicate, and grow.
What child counseling looks like.
Therapy for kids looks different than for adults. Play, art, story, and movement are how kids process — so that's how we work. Parents are partners throughout.
- Anxiety — Including separation, school, and worry that won't turn off.
- Big emotions — Tantrums, meltdowns, and big feelings that overwhelm.
- Family transitions — Divorce, new siblings, moves, loss.
- Trauma — Working with what happened, in age-appropriate ways.
- Behavior — Understanding what behavior is communicating.
- Grief — Helping kids name and process loss.
— Our approach —
Care that fits you.
Our child specialists are trained in play therapy, attachment-based work, and family-systems approaches. Parents are coached and looped in throughout.
Evidence-based
Approaches grounded in research — CBT, EMDR, DBT, attachment-based therapy, and more.
Strengths-based
Building on what's already in you — not just addressing what feels wrong.
In-person or virtual
Five in-office locations across Washington, plus secure telehealth across the state.
Is this right for you?
Child counseling is most effective when parents are engaged. We support the whole family — not just the child.
Behavior has shifted
Sleep, appetite, tantrums, school — changes that feel out of pattern.
A hard thing happened
A loss, a move, a divorce, a scary event — kids need help processing too.

A consult helps you understand what's developmental and what's not.
You want better tools
