Clients beware! If I could give them a negative review, I would. The owner and lead therapist,…read moreTina, is biased and thinks way too highly of herself. She bases her biases on the play therapy she is doing and is not self-aware enough to understand that play therapy must be done in a very specific way for it not to be biased. She does not run her business in the way that play therapy is done correctly. She makes overarching assumptions based on a child's play, and much of these assumptions are 100% untrue and just not accurate. The quality of care my children have received there are sub-par, one of my children is terrified of Tina, claiming that if she tries to get help from her, she will tell her other parent, of whom she is afraid. I am told no follow-up questions are asked of the child and sometimes some follow-up with especially older children is needed to figure out the real issues. If you cannot get the appropriate information from play or if the information is then incorrect what is the point of doing play therapy at all? Tina also uses interns. These interns build up a rapport with your child and then leave the practice. I understand the need of students to get practice hours and need a place to train for their degree. I do not fault them for needing to work somewhere. My issue is how the owner incorporates interns into the sessions. Tina is not around when these sessions with interns are happening and is often not even in the building. I am sure they meet later to discuss a client, however, for the most part she is completely out of the loop and it is tough to know how much that happens. I find working with individuals who think super highly of themselves that that they cannot admit any fault or if issues could be possible to be very difficult. I find them to be more concerned with themselves than their clients. Tina is one of these types of people. She knows it all, and thinks everything she does is perfect and without reproach. If your child is a good communicator, stay away from this office! You are better off going to a REAL talk therapist. I would say any child over 7 has outgrown this kind of therapy. Tina is not easy to work with overall, thinks highly of herself, and is a terrible communicator. Stay away from this practice!

From the owner: Next Step Counseling, a local mental health therapy office focused on supporting individuals…read morethrough challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Next Step Counseling works with all ages including youth, adolescents, adults, and the geriatric populations. Next Step Counseling specializes in Child-centered play therapy (CCPT). Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) is a form of therapy designed specifically for children, based on the belief that play is a child’s natural language and way of expressing thoughts, feelings, and experiences. In CCPT, the therapist provides a safe, accepting, and structured play environment where the child can freely express themselves through play. The therapist takes a non-directive role, meaning they do not guide or control the play but instead follow the child’s lead. Along with CCPT, Next Step Counseling provides services including Individual, Group, Couples, and Family therapy! Next Step Counseling currently practices in Rhode Island and Connecticut!
