Website Family Tree Therapy

Psychotherapy for children, teens and families.

Heart-centered and rewarding work with kids

Family Tree Therapy is a small (but mighty) group practice in Belleville, Ontario. We believe that children share their world through play and it’s our privilege to listen. We specialize in creating welcoming and engaging spaces where kids and their caregivers feel safe, seen and soothed. Our team and our spaces offer progressive & innovative expressive therapeutic approaches including:

  • Play Therapy
  • Sand tray Therapy
  • Brain-body/sensorimotor interventions
  • Art Therapy
  • Land-based therapy
  • Animal-Assisted Therapy (Winston can’t wait to meet you!)
  • Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy
  • Trauma-Responsive care

Our clients

We primarily work with children, youth and their families. We’ve designed spaces that are child-centered and welcoming to all ages. We also see caregivers and other adults who seek out creative therapeutic approaches for the tough stuff in life. There is space at Family Tree Therapy for new ideas and programs. From group therapy offerings to training facilitation, we understand that when you’re passionate and excited about what you do, our service recipients experience that joy and connection too.

Who you are

A compassionate and creative therapist who is interested, or already has skills, in expressive therapeutic work with children and adults. We welcome professionals at any stage of their professional journey, from those just starting out to experts wanting to expand their scope of practice. You are someone who is:

  • Registered and in good standing with your respective professional college in Ontario (e.g., Registered social worker or Psychotherapist)
  • A qualifying professional or student
  • An independent contractor
  • Looking for a flexible commitment

Why join our team?

We’re doing it differently. Traditional talk therapy approaches don’t always work for all folks and especially children. Instead, we offer different ways to meet people where they’re at, from a ‘bottom up’ brain approach. As a team colleague, you’ll start at a 60-40 split which will include:

  • Shared software licence through Jane
  • PHIPA compliant email to collaborate with the team and communicate with clients
  • Social media and community marketing
  • Administration support for managing referrals and waitlist
  • Large therapy rooms with natural light, a space you can call your own
  • All the child-centered therapy supplies you need to practice the way you want with families
  • 1:1 and group supervision that can be counted towards CRPO, Play Therapy Certification or other professional development
  • All client consumables to welcome families into session (coffee, tea, snacks, etc.)
  • Opportunities to connect and collaborate with other like-minded therapists

New centre in Downtown Belleville, Ontario! We have a strong referral network in the Bay of Quinte area. We are one of the only group therapy practices offering dedicated child-centered therapy and expressive therapeutic approaches all under one roof.

Work in Quinte as a division of The Bay of Quinte Regional Marketing Board is committed to acknowledging, appreciating and understanding the Indigenous peoples’ historic connection to this land and to raising awareness by building relationships in collaboration with Indigenous partners and communities. 

We recognize and acknowledge that we are living and working on the traditional territory of the Wendat, Mississauga, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee which includes the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka (Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte) with whom we work in direct partnership with. 

This partnership focuses on the common goal of celebrating the region with the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka who are equal partners within the organization and at the Board of Directors table contributing to the mandate and operations.

This mandate includes listening to, learning from, and collaborating with the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka and actively incorporating their culture and heritage into the practice of responsible destination marketing and management of the region.

We understand that this land acknowledgement is only a small step towards the larger process of reparations and reconciliation.
