Play Therapy with Tiffany Orrand

Ralph Cook speaks to Tiffany Orrand LPC/MHSP, RPT-S - Licensed Professional Counselor and Play Therapist-Supervisor on Play Therapy and the importance of play in the lives of children and adults. Resources & Links: Lantern Lane Farm was founded in the early 2000s by Ralph and Joni Cook, after their own family experienced the life-changing power of counseling. They envisioned a place where therapy didn’t feel clinical or intimidating, but instead peaceful, safe, and connected to nature. The name “Lantern Lane” was chosen as a symbol of guidance and safety—echoing the lanterns of the Underground Railroad that once lit the way to freedom. Just as those lanterns offered hope in the darkness, Lantern Lane Farm exists to shine a light for those searching for healing and restoration.
