Welcome to The Magic Playroom!
I provide neurodivergent-affirming, play-based therapy for children of all abilities, specializing in Autism, FASD, PDA, SPD, and ADHD. I also support children experiencing emotional and behavioral challenges like anxiety, aggression, selective mutism, and those adjusting to big life changes. Through Synergetic Play Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, and Expressive Play Therapy, I help children develop emotional regulation, confidence, and connection through sensory-friendly, child-led play.
Every session is tailored to each child’s unique interests—whether they love bubbles, slime, pretend play, or art, therapy feels fun and natural. By meeting children where they are, I create a safe space for them to explore emotions, strengthen relationships, and build resilience in ways that feel right.
I work closely with caregivers, teachers, and professionals to create supportive environments that truly honor each child’s needs. Through collaboration, we empower kids to thrive both in and outside of the therapy room. At The Magic Playroom, every child is seen, valued, and free to be themselves. Let’s connect!
