The goal is to help clients gain the skills to effectively manage their issues and improve the client’s ability to cope with life’s challenges.
“Thank you very much for all the assistance Catholic Charities Atlanta has given me. A year ago I was not in a good place, still trying to deal with the loss of my husband after 36 years of marriage. Now, after some counseling sessions, I am joyful and at peace once again and looking forward to my future.”

Play Therapy for Children
Play is a child’s way of communicating, just as adults use words. Play Therapy encourages an open and voluntary communication, reducing stress and building trust. Children learn to regulate their emotions as their self-esteem is elevated. This open communication fosters learning while promoting acceptable behavior and creative problem-solving. Play Therapy is a creative and healthy way to foster critical development in your child. Through play, children learn to:
- express feelings in a healthy way
- modify behavior
- develop problem-solving skills
- improve self-esteem
- relate to others in a healthy way
