Jeanne's work is rooted in her passion for equipping children and their caregivers with tools for meeting the challenges that childhood can bring, while strengthening the relationship between child and parent.

Play is so important to children. Through play, children express their thoughts and feelings, solve problems, work through fears and emotional hurts, and practice skills for adult life. Play therapy helps young children heal from trauma, deal with life changes, gain mastery over fear and anxiety, and improve social skills and behaviour.

When a child has had something bad, sad, or scary happen to them, play helps them through the healing process. In the presence of a trained play therapist, the child is able to process what has happened, express what they are feeling, and begin to gain mastery over the things that scare them.

Jeanne is credentialed by the Association for Play Therapy as a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor. (RPT-S)

In Child Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT), Dr. Williams will teach you how to conduct special play sessions with your children that will help them to develop self confidence and self-regulation while building a fun and positive relationship between parent and child.
