Comments from Margaret Cohen about her approach to helping others:

My approach to helping others revolves around creating a safe and supportive environment where children can express themselves freely, explore their thoughts and emotions, and develop coping strategies to navigate life's challenges. I use play therapy techniques to engage children in therapeutic activities that promote emotional healing and growth. I work collaboratively with families to understand the child's environment, identify strengths and challenges, and develop strategies to support the child's emotional well-being both inside and outside of therapy sessions. Overall, my approach to helping others is rooted in empathy, flexibility, and a deep commitment to supporting children in their journey toward emotional health and resilience.
