The purpose of this consultation between the Psychotherapist and the parents or guardians is to allow the opportunity to describe the reasons for seeking professional guidance and begin to set out the goals of the children’s sessions. Your Psychotherapist will explain what to expect from her process as well as her recommendations for future sessions. We all can benefit by acknowledging the big feelings and sometimes difficult emotions experienced by children and their families, particularly if they have or are experiencing anxiety, grief, illness or trauma. Creative arts therapists help children visually express and record experiences, perceptions, feelings and imagination; they use arts-based approaches to enhance young clients’ abilities to communicate through creative expression. Art expression is a form of non-verbal communication. For children and teens who may not be able to articulate thoughts, sensations, emotions or perceptions, it is one way to convey what may be difficult to express with words.

*Important note: pediatric appointments must be booked under the child’s name. Experiential treatment methods are proven to be effective in helping teenagers combat the hopeless feelings experienced when suffering from mental illness and struggles that teens often struggle to speak about. Creative therapies can help adolescents engage in the world around them, regaining control of their own lives. In addition, a teens inner world of images, feelings, thoughts, and ideas are always of primary importance to the therapeutic experience. It therefore provides an outlet to process and release emotional trauma and make sense of and better articulate thoughts, sensations and emotions.
