About

The PAAR Child and Family Counseling Center provides trauma-informed and evidenced-based treatment to child and adolescent survivors of sexual abuse and their families. Our short-term and weekly therapy utilizes modalities and interventions that are both engaging to the child and individualized to therapeutic needs.

The Child and Family Counseling Center believes that parents and guardians play an active role in a child’s healing and should be included in the treatment process when appropriate.

PAAR therapists are trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy, Sensory Motor Arousal Regulation Treatment (SMART), Trauma Art Narrative Therapy, and other evidenced-based and trauma-informed modalities. The PAAR Child and Family Counseling Center utilizes mind-body based interventions, as well as other creative art interventions to promote the processing of trauma and development of healthy coping skills.
