Don’t know what to do next to help your child?
When we first become parents, many of us expect a story that is full of love and connection as we raise happy and healthy kids.
Sometimes, life doesn’t go as planned. When our children struggle with behavior challenges, it can leave us feeling exhausted, hopeless, isolated or even guilty about how we respond.
At Head & Heart Family Therapy, we believe no child's behavior should disrupt the bond between parent and child or the peace in your home. Our expert Child Counseling and Play Therapy services use a proven approach that has helped countless families in the Inland Empire and across Southern California to foster more calm, connection, and harmony with their children. Let us help you rewrite your family's story.
There is good news - you don’t have to face this journey alone.
We team up with parents and provide supportive play therapy that addresses behavior issues and helps families grow closer.
Why Parents Love Working With Us
Support Both Children + Parents
As the saying goes, "It takes two to tango," and this is especially true in the relationship between parents and children. That's why we offer comprehensive support, including one-on-one sessions with your child, joint sessions for both of you, and parent-only consultation.
Neurodivergence, Disability & Autism Trained Play Therapy
Navigating a world that isn't always adaptable for your child can present unique challenges. At Head & Heart Family Therapy, our play therapy sessions are tailored for children with neurodivergence, disabilities, and autism.
Play-Based Treatment
Play Therapy is more than just play - it's a powerful form of communication. Through Play-Based Treatment, I help children communicate what's troubling them when they lack the words to express their emotions. This approach allows children to process and overcome challenges, promoting emotional healing and growth.
Child-Centered Approach
Our child-centered, adaptive, and affirming play therapy approach is designed for children of all abilities. These sessions create opportunities for meaningful play that enhances connection and relationship development. We also teach parents how to implement these strategies at home.

NO SURPRISE ACT NOTICE - YOUR RIGHT TO A “GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE”
You have the right to receive a ‘Good Faith Estimate’ explaining how much your medical care may cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who do not have insurance, or who are not using insurance, a cost estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a ‘Good Faith Estimate’ for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. Your health care provider must give you a ‘Good Faith Estimate’ in writing for scheduled services within designated timeframes. You can also ask your health care provider for a ‘Good Faith Estimate’ before you schedule an item or service If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your ‘Good Faith Estimate’, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
