IMPACT's Approach to
Child Therapy
At IMPACT Psychological Services, we utilize a warm, supportive, and playful approach that allows children to feel at ease.
Play therapy, a proven therapeutic modality, enables children ages 3-11 to grow, learn, heal, and thrive. Given that children often lack the verbal abilities to express their feelings, play therapy provides an essential medium for processing emotions and developing appropriate coping skills. Play is the language of childhood.
Integrative play therapy addresses a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, behavioral difficulties, coping with family conflict, and trauma. Our therapists employ various approaches, such as psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and family systems interventions, to tailor treatment to each child's unique needs. We work closely with families to strengthen relationships between children, parents, and siblings, offering tools to support your child’s growth and development.
Child & Adolescent Psychotherapy
For older children and adolescents, our clinicians provide psychotherapy services drawing from multiple theoretical approaches. These include cognitive-behavioral, family systems, dialectical behavior therapy, and psychodynamic interventions. We emphasize the importance of culture and identity in all our work, supporting the development of a strong sense of self and the ability to navigate complex social environments. Our clinicians are gender-affirming, supportive of neurodiversity, and attentive to intersectional identity and the impact of trauma.
Groups
We offer rotating groups for elementary-aged children, as well as middle and high schoolers. Facilitated by skilled therapists, these groups focus on child development, social-emotional learning, and group dynamics, providing support from both therapists and peers facing similar challenges.
How Child Therapy Can Help
Our goal is to provide children with the tools they need to navigate life's
challenges, fostering resilience, growth, and a healthy sense of self.

Improved emotion regulation
Support during family transitions, such as divorce
Enhanced social skills and relationships
