Ann Trettin

Ann Trettin is a dedicated Clinical Social Worker and Therapist specializing in play therapy to assist children and their families. She believes that play serves as the authentic expression of a child's emotions and inner experiences. Recognizing that young children who face academic and social challenges often require support in developing essential skills, Ann provides a safe, therapeutic environment where children can engage in play as a medium for healing and understanding. Her approach is particularly beneficial for children dealing with loss or trauma, who may find it challenging to express their feelings verbally. At Trettin Play Therapy Services, Ann facilitates this healing process within a child-centered playroom, helping children foster coping skills and navigate their emotions. With extensive experience in engaging with children, she balances her work in the playroom by offering valuable support and guidance to parents, caregivers, and family members. In addition to play therapy, her practice encompasses family systems work and individual therapy for adolescents and adults, drawing upon a blend of person-centered and cognitive-behavioral approaches.
