At Shore, she starts with the parents, asks what they have noticed, and then spends the first sessions letting the child get to know the playroom.

How Carolina works
Carolina uses play therapy: toys, drawing and stories that let a young child show what is hard. She explains each step to parents in plain words, and does not promise a number of sessions.
What sessions look like
Play and drawing
Sessions take place in the playroom. The child leads, and Carolina follows and names what she sees.
Time with parents
Parents meet Carolina on a set schedule, apart from the child's session, to hear how things are going.
School and home
With a signed release, Carolina can speak with a teacher about what helps your child in class.
