Home within the Heart
A clinical–research center for family and community
Programs at the Home Within the Heart Center
At Home Within the Heart, we develop and implement evidence-based models to strengthen parent–child connection in early childhood,
supporting families facing crisis, trauma, and ongoing change.
Our group-based therapeutic programs for parents, children, and educational teams are delivered within communities nationwide and at a systemic level, in collaboration with local authorities, education and welfare systems, and community organizations.
Grounded in clinical and research-based knowledge, and based on a model integrating playfulness and mentalization, the programs work in a dyadic format and aim
to help restore a sense of safety, connection, and stability.

What Parents Share
“[My child] doesn’t share much at home. But here she’s different — she enjoys it and she’s flourishing. It’s amazing.”
“I felt that we went through a process here. The sessions were something different. Alongside the games, talking, writing, and thinking together about things we don’t usually think about in our daily lives: it was meaningful.”
“[My child] came back on cloud nine last week. He really looked forward to the sessions and did not want it to end. He put the rabbit plush on his bed and wanted to sleep with it too. He went through a process, opened up, and shared more.”
“The topics discussed here also came up at home, like a continuation of the workshop. For example, we continued discussing the topic of fear. Thank you very much for the opportunity to be part of the program.”
