      <image:title>Services - Children</image:title>
      <image:caption>Child/play therapy is currently in-person, ages 8 -12. Beth’s play therapy relies on parents also attending counselling in the form of Parent Support. Play Therapy uses Sandtray, art, stories, games, and play founded in Alderian Partners in Play + Neuroscience &amp; Satir in the Sandtray. Please Note: Child therapy begins with a “parent(s) only” intake 1st-session. Parent Support: The Child’s needs are the goal of the therapy; this can be a very effective means of support for children and their families.</image:caption>
