A typical 50 minute session involves a check, a weekly therapeutic activity and a time for free choice. I often ask kids at the session before what is something they'd like to do at the next session. We end with time with the parent/caregiver and make a plant for the following session. We hold all plans loosely allowing children to have control. I have a "pass rule" - kids can pass on any activity.

Yes, I work with teens up to 18 years of age. I meet teens where they are at - using their interests to connect and help them feel empowered, seen and heard no matter what they are facing.

Costs start at $150 for a 50-minute session of play, education and 10 minutes of connecting with parents/caregiver. Additional fee for siblings. I do not accept insurance but can accept HSA payment or provide a superbill. If cost is deterrent I can provide a sliding scale.

It depends - I highly recommend weekly for at least 4-6 weeks to build rapport and trust. Then we can discuss if twice a monthly is sufficient.

Typically no, but for teaching, diagnosis or preparation for a procedure I highly recommend parent/caregiver participation. As always, the last 10 minutes I provide for time to connect with parents/caregivers.
