Chiquana Bryant is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of North Carolina. She has been employed in the mental health field since 2006 starting as a community supports worker/case manager. She became a licensed therapist in 2012 and has gained a wealth of knowledge from the experiences of those she's counseled. She's come across all walks of life from small children and caregivers with a history of trauma and attachment issues, oppositional and defiant teenagers with behavioral challenges, and adults who are figuring out underlying causes of mental and emotional challenges potentially picked up over the course of their lives.
Most recently, she has been a therapist in a close-custody prison. She experienced what society may consider "the worst of the worst" human beings completely changing their thinking patterns and behaviors to be promoted and/or released from prison after gaining a new level of insight and motivation to succeed.
Chiquana brings knowledge of attachment issues, especially between young children and their primary caregivers. Utilizing play therapy and addressing traumatic experiences will aid in a parent's ability to help their child (and themselves) regulate emotions. The same goes for adults who have faced trauma over the course of their lives — narrative therapy and discussing the circumstances involving the trauma tends to help alleviate symptoms of paranoia and trust issues, depression, anxiety, anger, and mood disorders. Chiquana believes that any situation can be handled with a listening ear, knowledge of how the mind and emotions work, and patience.
Chiquana believes that the most important part of the therapy process is the therapeutic relationship. Being able to relate, empathize with, and understand you without any judgment or bias will allow her to best serve and assist you through whatever mental and emotional challenges you may face. However, without creating a relationship of trust and genuine regard for the therapy process, it will be impossible to see results. Please allow her to assist you by forming a therapeutic alliance that will help you to achieve your goals. Depression, anxiety, stress, behavioral challenges, relationship issues, and trauma can be turned around with the right attitude, persistence, and knowledge!

Online play therapy allows young children to use virtual toys, art, and creative materials and exercises to express emotions and experiences, with trained Thriveworks Charlotte therapists guiding the process. This format is especially helpful for children who may have difficulties with in-person session, ultimately supporting their well-being and development.
Online play therapy for children functions by utilizing digital platforms, such as video calls or virtual environments, to facilitate therapeutic sessions. During these sessions, trained Thriveworks Charlotte therapists help children engage in play-based activities, using toys, art, and creative materials to express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences, much like they would in traditional in-person play therapy. A trained play therapist guides and observes the child’s play, creating a supportive and empathetic space for exploration and understanding of their emotions and challenges.
Online play therapy at Thriveworks is conducted online via Online therapy, though Thriveworks also offers in-person play therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Online play therapy’s length can be variable, contingent upon the child’s distinct requirements, the progress achieved during treatment, and the therapist’s treatment plan. In general, online play therapy involves a series of sessions spanning from several weeks to several months. The specific number of sessions and the overall therapy duration are tailored to the child’s response to treatment and the therapeutic objectives established.
Certainly, online play therapy can still be beneficial for your child. While traditional face-to-face play therapy might offer certain advantages, such as physical presence and a more tangible connection with the therapist, online play therapy can provide numerous benefits as well:
Play therapy provides a developmentally appropriate and effective approach for children to address a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and social difficulties in a supportive and empowering manner.
Your child’s therapist will discuss with you how to ensure that your child understands the difference, since this is such a crucial part of why play therapy works. If you have any more questions, feel free to contact us at Thriveworks today!
