Some children feel overwhelmed by anxiety, grief or parental separation struggling to regulate their emotions. Others navigate the world with ADHD or ASD finding social connection, and self-expression challenging. They may experience meltdowns, withdrawals or difficulties in school and relationships. Their goal is to feel safe, understood, and capable of managing their emotion. They want to feel more in control, develop confidence and build stronger connections with their caregivers and peers.
Through play therapy, creative intervention, and evidence-based strategies, I help children process, emotions, develop self-regulation skills and build resilience. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment base and neuro-affirming and tailored to each child's need.
I also work closely with parents, providing practical strategies and emotional support to strengthen family bonds. If your child is struggling, I invite you to reach out—healing happens through connection, and your child doesn’t have to navigate this alone.
