Play Therapy
I am an experienced play therapist who helps children express their thoughts and emotions. Therapeutic play helps children with social or emotional issues learn to communicate better, change their behavior, develop problem-solving skills, and relate to others in positive ways. It is helpful for children who need to process stressful events in their lives. I also help children with anxiety, depression, academic and social problems, anger, aggression, behavioral challenges, and grief. I specialize in working with children in elementary school, but see preschool age children as well.
In addition, an important part of my work is to educate parents on how to best respond to their child and teach effective tools to use at home. My foundation is connection parenting and I use an attachment-based, emotion-focused approach.

Parent CounselingI provide parent counseling to address your questions, concerns or challenges. As a parent, your behavior is the only one you have control over and making changes on your end makes a big difference in the dynamic and relationship between you and your child. Personal support is key to making a difference in your family. I support clients so that they are better able to be the people they'd like to be in their family. I will provide you with the understanding and tools that will improve your relationships and help your family thrive.
