Understanding, Support, and Care That Grow with Your Child
Starting therapy on the North Shore isn’t only your child’s journey — it’s yours as well. We’re here to help you both move forward.
What to Expect as a Parent
What the First Step Looks Like
We begin with a free 15-minute discovery call. It’s your chance to share concerns, ask questions, and get a feel for how we work. No diagnosis or referral is needed. Just a sense that your child might need some extra support.
At Little Peak Therapy, we walk alongside families with clarity, compassion, and connection.
The First Session
In your first visit:
-
Through our initial assessment we spend time getting to know your child through gentle, play-based interaction.
-
We observe and connect, without pressure.
-
You’ll speak with the therapist about your goals, concerns, and next steps.
We focus on building trust and comfort. This creates a strong foundation for meaningful growth.
What Parents Often As
-
“Is this just a phase, or should I be concerned?”
-
“How do I even know what kind of therapy my child needs?”
-
“I just want my child to feel confident and connected.”
We hear these questions every day—and they matter. You don’t need all the answers right now. You just need a place that sees your child’s strengths and supports their growth. That’s what we do.
How We Support Families Like Yours
Through our affirming approach, we are here to embrace each child as they are—we're here to help them grow, with support that feels joyful, respectful, and connected.
