Discover Our Mission and Vision for the Future

About Whole Roots

At Whole Roots Therapy, we believe children grow best when play and relationship form the deep roots of their development. Guided by our vision of Deep Roots. Lasting Futures., our mission is to advance Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) by equipping professionals, educators, and families with evidence-based tools that nurture resilience and healing.

We envision a future where every child is seen, heard, and empowered, and where the adults who care for them feel confident, supported, and inspired to help children flourish.


Our Story

Whole Roots Therapy began with a simple conviction: children grow best when play and relationship are at the heart of their world. Too often, the adults who care for them lack the resources and support they need to fully embrace this truth.

Whole Roots Therapy was created by Courtney Taylor, LSCSW to help meet that need. With a focus on accessible resources and meaningful training, we support the people who shape children’s lives every day.

At its core, Whole Roots Therapy is guided by the belief that when children are truly seen and supported, everyone flourishes.


Looking Ahead

Whole Roots Therapy started as a project, but our goal is to turn it into a movement. We are building toward a future where CCPT is recognized as the gold standard for supporting children, and where professionals and families alike have the tools they need to bring it into everyday life.

We’d love for you to join us in advancing CCPT through learning, sharing, and growing together.
