Sometimes children find it hard to put into words what they are feeling inside. They may act out, shut down, or seem lost in ways that are difficult to understand. Whether your child is experiencing the effects of trauma or attachment injury, neurodiversity, or other challenges, OCATT therapists provide a gentle, supportive space where children are met exactly as they are and help them to feel seen and heard. Our therapists work with children who are carrying big emotions, processing difficult experiences, or simply struggling to feel settled at home or at school. Through play, movement, and creative expression, we help children feel safe enough to open up and begin to heal in ways that feel natural to them.
