Parenting feels harder than ever right now.
You can see your child is struggling, but you feel powerless to do anything about it.
Deep down, you’re worried things will never change. They have so much potential, and you would hate to see them miss it.
You’re tired, you’re discouraged, and you’re not sure what’s going to really help.
We help kids understand themselves and give parents the tools they need to help their family thrive.

Family Court Assessments
In addition to therapy, we provide family court assessments, including Voice of the Child reports and parenting capacity assessments. These reports give the court a clear, professional understanding of a child’s perspective and a parent’s strengths, helping families and decision-makers move forward with the right information. If your family is going through a legal process and needs an experienced clinician involved, ask your legal representative to get in touch.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is your cancellation policy?
Can I get information about my kid’s therapy sessions?
How does play therapy work?
Kids are still developing their ability to express themselves through words. Until then (usually around age 10), they process their internal experiences through play. At Lift Lock Therapy, we lean into that. Board games, toys, costumes, art, crafts, puzzles, whatever your kid needs to show us what’s going on inside. It looks like fun (and it is), and it’s also where the real work happens. You can read more about the therapeutic powers of play here.
How long does therapy usually last?
The benefit of working with a private therapist is flexibility. The parents, child, and therapist decide together when to continue, pause, or come back later. We check in with parents regularly to assess whether more sessions are useful. A typical structure when starting out is 4-6 sessions.
