What sets us apart?
What sets us apart?
We are neuro-affirming and child-led: we focus on connection and trust over compliance
We have multiple pediatric certifications & specializations: we look at the whole child, including mental, physical, and social health, and provide comprehensive and specialized therapy services
We are family and relationship-centered: we focus on improving family dynamics, because the child's growth is so dependent on it
We foster interoception: we are aware that some children first need to connect with their body and its sensations to understand, identify, and process feelings
