Incorporating certified animals in therapy can help create a warm, inviting, and nurturing environment in the counseling process. Certified animals will work with the therapist on the clients goals, and lowering anxiety within the therapy session. Children can also benefit from the intergrated use of a therapy animal by learning responsiblity, respect, and patience.
Play Therapy
A therapeutic method that allows children to use their own natural medium of communication. Many young children haven't quite reached the level to express their thoughts and feeling through cognitive talk therapy. This type of therapy allows children to use toys to express what would otherwise be difficult for them to verbalize.
Sand Tray Therapy
This therapy allows clients the freedom to express their emotions creatively through sand creations. Building creations that allow clients to share their words through tactile means. similar to play therapy, children are able to express themselves through sand vs words. This is also beneficial to individuals who wish to simply work with their hands as they do therapy.
