Child-Focused Theraputic Play: Support and Healing in Montreal

Child-Focused Theraputic Play: Support and Healing in Montreal

Montreal Integrated Therapy and Wellness Centre is a professional space in Montreal where independent practitioners offer psychosocial services to individuals, couples, and families. The environment is designed to be respectful, confidential, and supportive, allowing clients of all ages to explore personal and relational concerns with qualified professionals.

Among the services offered by independent practitioners in the space, several provide child-focused theraputic play using play-based, creative, and expressive approaches. These sessions are adapted to the developmental needs of children and can support them in expressing emotions, understanding experiences, and navigating challenges such as anxiety, behavioral difficulties, family changes, or exposure to stressful events. The use of play and other creative modalities allows children to communicate in ways that feel natural and accessible to them.

Practitioners who work with children have training appropriate to their professional role and use recognized intervention methods in accordance with the ethical and professional standards established by the OTSTCFQ, the CCPA or their respective order. Approaches offered by practiciners focus on supporting the child’s functioning, strengthening coping skills, and collaborating with parents or caregivers when appropriate and with consent where applicable.

Both in-person and virtual appointments are available, offering families flexibility in accessing services. Each practitioner working within the space maintains responsibility for their own professional practice, scope of services, and clinical decisions.

Families seeking support for a child’s emotional or behavioral challenges are invited to consult the profiles of the independent practitioners at Montreal Integrated Therapy and Wellness Centre to determine who may best meet their needs. The centre is located at 1851 Saint-Catherine St W, Suite 200, Montreal, Quebec, H3H 1M2.
