Providing holistic psychotherapy for children, parents, and adults, individually and in groups. kindredtreehealing.com Why the name Kindred Tree?

At Kindred Tree Healing Center we believe that the best care comes from a caring relationship, and an integrated perspective, combining modern science with ancient wisdom. We engage in psychotherapy and healing services that are rooted in evidence based practice by combining traditional talk therapies with cutting edge neuroscience-informed approaches that aim at facilitating deep healing and grow

th from difficult experiences. We work with the whole person by incorporating decades of research in the area of human development. We combine this knowledge with experiential therapies like art, music, play and sandtray and what you get is profound healing from the inside out. We specialize in treating children and adults who have experienced trauma or other difficult life experiences and also have extensive knowledge and expertise in attachment and parenting issues. Bettering relationships between children and parents is one of the most powerful influences you can have on society. Kindred Tree Healing Center believes in supporting children and adults through life's journey with authenticity, deep respect, and care. Trees reflect life, strength, and healing. A tribe of trees stand together, like kindred spirits, honoring themselves exactly for what they are. Our mission at Kindred Tree Healing is to provide this same sense of community and solidarity to the children and adults we work with.

How can we begin to explain to our children and teens why or how horrible things happen- in our country, and around the world? 🤲🏽 🌎 🤲🏽

Social media use and online school were one of children’s and teen’s only source of connection and means of learning during the height of the pandemic. What qualified mental health professionals have learned from supporting families through those times, and into the present, is that it’s not healthy for children and teens’ social-emotional or cognitive health to have unrestricted access to social media and the internet.

If you’re a parent or caregiver feeling overwhelmed by how to help support your child’s safety online, in school, and in other spaces, consider joining our upcoming online workshop- “What Do I Tell Them?”: An Educational Workshop About Healthy Development And Body Safety for Parents of Children Ten And Below!

This workshop will be offered online only, Tuesday April 28th, 5-6:30 pm. For more information or to register for this workshop, look for the registration link in our stories, highlights, the comments, or our website!

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒🤲🏽❤️‍🩹Conflicts between parents and children are part of the learning process of being a parent AND being a child! Conflict is hard, but offers important moments for children to figure out with an adult’s help how to be in conflict with others in a way that feels healthy and solvable.

🤲🏽👧🏽🧒🏻👶🏾👦🏼🌳 Parenting or caregiving children and teens comes with a lot of pressure to get things RIGHT- to teach them how to move through the world with security, and teach them well.

🤲🏽🩵🌳 At Kindred Tree Healing Center, we know that it can be hard to find ways to impart important life lessons while juggling the day-to-day struggles…it can quickly become a conflict, and we know that’s not how kids learn best.

Follow along for tips on preparing kids to learn what they need to know to build security! 🌳👶🏾🧒🏻👧🏽👦🏼🌳

Children cannot grow, develop, change, or build a sense of inner security on their own or by *just* working with a therapist- they need their parents or caregivers to be at the forefront of showing them the way. At KTHC, we help break down how parents can do so with confidence and care.

Parent consultations are built into the therapeutic process so that parents or caregivers can meet regularly with their child’s therapist to receive expert support and guidance on how to support their child’s unique needs and emotional processing.
