Meet Molly
Molly is a character we created to help illustrate the journey many children and families experience when faced with trauma. She represents the curiosity, playfulness, and wonder that every child brings into the world, as well as the challenges that can arise when difficult experiences take over a young mind. Through her story, we show how children and their families can find hope, healing, and reconnection.
At Dawn Institute, we provide compassionate, individualized therapy that helps children process difficult experiences through play, creativity, and supportive guidance. Just like Molly, children learn to release what has been holding them back and rediscover imagination, curiosity, and joy.
Molly’s story also highlights the role of parents in a child’s healing. Therapy at Dawn supports not only the child but also the family, helping parents reconnect, communicate effectively, and navigate their own challenges so that the entire family can grow stronger together.
How can we help your family heal?
