At Horizon Counseling Services, we specialize in nurturing children’s emotional well-being through evidence-based, trauma-informed play therapy for kids ages 3 and up. Located in the heart of Centerville, Utah, our all-female team of licensed mental health professionals creates a safe, supportive space where your child can heal, grow, and thrive—through the natural language of play.
Children often lack the vocabulary to articulate complex emotions like fear, grief, anxiety, or confusion. But they do know how to play. Play therapy is a developmentally appropriate, research-backed approach that allows children to express themselves, process difficult experiences, and build emotional resilience using toys, art, storytelling, and imaginative activities.
At Horizon Counseling Services, we believe every child deserves to feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether your child is navigating divorce, school stress, trauma, behavioral challenges, or big life transitions, our therapists use child-centered, strengths-based techniques to meet them where they are—and help them move forward with confidence.
Our clinicians bring years of specialized experience working with children and families. Several members of our team are deeply trained in play-based and trauma-informed interventions, ensuring your child receives compassionate, effective care:
Adrianna Pahulu, LCSW has dedicated 11 years to supporting children and families through therapeutic play, attachment work, and family systems approaches. Her gentle, intuitive style helps even the most anxious or withdrawn children feel safe and seen.
Haley Urry, CSW holds both bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Social Work and is passionate about helping young individuals navigate emotional and behavioral challenges through personalized, developmentally attuned therapy.
Annie Kerns, CSW-I, a current MSW student, uses trauma-informed, strengths-based care to support children, teens, and young adults in building emotional intelligence, healthy coping skills, and lasting resilience.
Under the clinical leadership of Crystalyn Hori-Wilson, CMHC—a seasoned therapist with 13 years of experience in mental health—our team ensures every child receives individualized attention grounded in best practices and deep empathy.
When your child begins play therapy at Horizon Counseling Services, they’ll enter a warm, inviting playroom filled with carefully selected toys, art supplies, sand trays, puppets, and sensory tools. This isn’t just “playing”—it’s therapeutic play guided by a trained professional who observes, reflects, and gently supports your child’s emotional journey.
