Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
“When children play—yes, even through a screen—they discover powerful ways to soothe, speak up, solve problems, and trust their own strong, unique voice.”
Virtual play therapy uses connection, creativity, and age-appropriate activities to help children calm their nervous systems, process big feelings, and grow a confident sense of self.
In 50-minute virtual child sessions, parents can expect:
A 5-10 minute warm-up where the parent logs-in and shares any updates with or without their child listening.
20-30 minutes of engaging and meaningful exercises for their child. Parents can be present throughout or give this time to their child.
5-15 minute show-and-tell with parents at the end of each session. This is an opportunity for children to get the exercises to “stick” and for their to see and learn the skills to be practiced at home.
3-6 sessions total. Sometimes, a family may want to continue working together and that’s OK! But, we hope that children and their families will learn tangible and helpful skills quickly that will translate to every day life. Of course, we welcome touch up sessions when skills need to be refreshed or adjusted as children move through new experiences and developmental phases.
These sessions, like all of our work, is considered out of network with insurance providers, but we are always happy to send a superbill to families for them to submit to their insurance providers for reimbursement.
