I can NOT recommend Brittany Christiansen or the play therapy program. It is my first personal experience with play therapy. Ms. Christiansen was recommended by another counselor who didn't accept young children. She may be of benefit in simple, straightforward cases, but our situation was more complex, and she was unable to handle the case. She repeatedly went back to certain basic principles that had already been utilized and in place. The counselor chose to cut back visits despite the fact that our family and our granddaughter felt uncomfortable moving to every other week. This caused regression and escalating behaviors. When addressed, there were no new recommendations or help offered, just status quo therapy sessions. She continued to see us without offering anything to address exacerbation. I had to seek our additional help from physician, specialists, and look for answers on my own. After a severe escalation that came close to needing emergency intervention, I had a phone call and parent meeting, which I was told was to discuss our concerns and brainstorm future recommendations and therapy plans. Turns out the meeting was only to say what they were doing wasn't working and offer their "recommendations" for OT therapy which they knew had already been ordered by her specialist, recommend some other programs which I had already asked their thoughts on (not their idea/recommendation) and tell us there was nothing else their offices could provide so they would be terminating care. So, as I said, if you have a sweet, compliant child who just needs something straightforward and simple then go for it, but if you have a strong-willed child with complex traumas that will require real work and solutions keep looking because she can't do it
