GBH INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP ONLINE SESSIONS
Rewarding Results
These sessions follow the same basic principles than that of the group sessions. Individual sessions also focusses on problem areas that was discussed prior to the registration of the child. During sessions I use play therapy methods as to get the child involved in play while learning new skills and sharing information.
Sessions will be done in private as to get the best, honest participation from your child.
Sessions of 45 minutes each are scheduled for weekly sessions.
GROWING BRAVE HEARTS PLAY SESSIONS
Great success
These individual sessions are also combined with play therapy methods. Although sometimes used with adults, play therapy is a psychotherapeutic approach primarily used to help children ages 3 to 12 explore their lives and freely express repressed thoughts and emotions through play. Therapeutic play normally takes place in a safe, comfortable playroom, where very few rules or limits are imposed on the child, encouraging free expression and allowing us to observe the child’s choices, decisions, and play style. The goal is to help children learn to express themselves in healthier ways, become more respectful and empathetic, and discover new and more positive ways to solve problems.
When It's Used
Therapeutic play helps children with social or emotional deficits learn to communicate better, change their behavior, develop problem-solving skills, and relate to others in positive ways. It is appropriate for children undergoing or witnessing stressful events in their lives.
