Parent Information

 

What is the process?

After an initial phone call, I set up a parent meeting. This gives us the opportunity to talk openly about your child and I take a social and developmental history. The more information I have about your child, the better I can understand their behaviors and gain insight into their emotional world. If your child is struggling at school, a school observation is recommended. Although I am flexible, I recommend a four/five session evaluation which includes feedback for the parents. The feedback session includes my observations, parent coaching, recommendations and insight into your child's world.

 

Recommended Evaluation: 

1) Parent Meeting

2) School Visit (if needed)

3) Family Play Therapy Session

4) Individual Play Session

5) Parent Feedback

 

 

Below is paperwork that can be printed out for you to bring to our initial meeting. I will review the paperwork and I will answer any questions you may have at that time. Feel free to email me at tammi@mainlineplaytherapy.com or call my office at 610-642-1144.
