Play therapy for children with Michelle Renfrow

Why play therapy works.

Play is the natural language of children. When words aren't enough — or aren't yet available — play gives children a safe, expressive way to communicate their inner world, work through difficult experiences, and develop healthy coping skills. Michelle's play therapy room is fully equipped with all the materials needed for art and play therapy activities, creating an inviting space where children feel free to explore and heal.

Who Benefits from Play Therapy

Children experiencing anxiety, worry, or fear.

Kids navigating family changes such as divorce, relocation, or loss.

Children with behavioral challenges or difficulty regulating emotions.

Kids who have experienced trauma or adverse childhood experiences.

Children struggling with social skills, friendships, or school stress.

Michelle's Play Therapy Approach

Michelle integrates play therapy with art-based techniques, creating a rich, multi-modal experience that meets each child's unique needs and learning style. Her warm, patient presence helps children feel safe enough to explore difficult feelings at their own pace.

She works collaboratively with parents and caregivers, keeping families informed and involved in the therapeutic process — because healing happens best when the whole family is supported.
