Group Theraplay is a free 8-week program for families who have children between 3.9 to 6 years of age (school age children). This fun, interactive program is completely FREE and is led by both a Mental Health Professional (Child and Adolescent Services) and a Public Health Nurse.

- Recognize emotional cues – Understand and respond to your child’s feelings with confidence.
- Build calming skills – Learn effective ways to soothe your child during tough moments.
- Boost their confidence – Support your child in becoming more self-assured.
- Foster healthy development – Equip yourself with strategies to nurture your child’s emotional and social growth.
