Child & Play Therapy

Helping your child find their voice and feel safe again.

Our Services

Children May Not Have the Words — But They Always Have a Way of Telling Us.

Children process the world differently than adults. They may not be able to articulate what's wrong, but their behavior, emotions, and play often reveal what they're carrying. At Compass, our child and play therapists use play-based, trauma-informed, and developmentally appropriate techniques to meet your child exactly where they are. We create a warm, safe space where kids feel comfortable enough to express themselves — and where healing can begin naturally.

The Process

What to Expect

1

Play-Based Therapy

For younger children, play is the language of therapy. Through games, art, and creative activities, your child can process emotions in a way that feels natural.

2

Trauma-Informed Care

If your child has experienced something difficult, our therapists are trained to work gently and effectively with trauma responses.

3

Parent Involvement

We believe parents are essential partners in the therapeutic process. We'll keep you informed and equipped to support your child at home.

4

Building Coping Skills

Your child will learn age-appropriate tools for managing big emotions, anxiety, anger, and stress.
