The process is most effective when parents actively collaborate, as children&#8217;s symptoms often reflect family dynamics. By improving communication within the family, psychotherapy can help meet the child&#8217;s needs and build a stronger family bond.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Therapy for children is adapted to their age.<\/strong> Often involving creative methods like play, art, stories, breathing exercises, and mindfulness for kids. In addition to my training in systemic psychotherapy, I have enhanced my expertise in child therapy through Gestalt Play Therapy training.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Technical Information<\/h2>\n<p>Sessions are held in person or online, typically on a weekly basis.
