Therapists work from a developmental, attachment-based, depth-oriented, and trauma-informed lens to support children who have experienced various psychological difficulties and complex life experiences.

Jumping Mouse Children’s Center trains students and therapists in nondirective play therapy, with a focus on the use of Jungian sand tray as a central tool. Play therapists at Jumping Mouse learn to integrate the modalities of drama, art, and movement with the practice of psychotherapy. Jumping Mouse offers internships to individuals enrolled in master’s-level counseling programs, as well as training in child therapy to post-graduate individuals.
