As we recognize International Play Therapy Week 2026, CARE Psychology is celebrating where play therapy and creativity meet, and how expressive arts help children and teens express what can be hard to put into words.

As we kick off Mental Health Week (May 5–11), it’s the perfect time to talk about one of the most meaningful and developmentally appropriate ways we support children at CARE Psychology: play therapy.

There’s something special about walking into a space that feels like it fits — calm, intentional, and grounded, yet also creative and playful. Over the past few months (well almost a year), we’ve been working behind the scenes to make our new clinic space just that — a place that feels like home for us, and a place that feels safe and welcoming for you.
