Children are changing daily, learning how the world works, navigating new friendships and family dynamics, and having big emotions that they may have never felt before. As a parent you have a front row ticket to watching them develop and navigate these changes, which is rewarding but also overwhelming when emotions start to fly around the room. That is where I like to come in and join your child and family on this journey.
I create a safe environment where kids can explore big emotions through their natural first language of play, creativity and imagination. I help them to develop new skills of problem solving, coping skills, critical thinking, self-control, and emotional regulation to name a few in order to help them start to take steps towards change.
Change in your child goes beyond the therapy room into your home when I partner with you to help you learn skills to continue their growth outside of session. Lasting change is very achievable when we all work together as a team to put a plan in place and start taking these steps together!
