February is Black History Month.

At The Healing Playroom, we believe healing begins when children feel seen, respected, and emotionally safe in all of who they are.

January is a time for patience, predictability, and care.

When children are supported with steady routines and emotional understanding, they can find balance again at their own pace. Play therapy offers a calm space for that process to unfold.

We’re here to support your family as the year begins.
