All of our children are so very unique and constantly changing. Sometimes they need a helping hand to keep them moving along to thrive in their relationships and connections with others; or to develop strategies to support emotional regulation, social skills, life skills, anxiety reduction, concentration and focus, or processing of traumatic events. Throughout the process, parent/caregiver participation is a key component when it comes to working with children. My long-standing experience with neurodiverse children, youth, and their families will provide you with the reassurance you need to move forward.
I have extensive involvement with children/youth with Autism. I am an AutPlay Therapy Provider, which is a play and behavioral therapy approach to working with children & families affected by ASD, ADHD, dysregulation issues, and other neurodevelopmental disorders. I have training in Play Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Trauma Focused CBT.
No matter what struggle presents itself, your child and you are not alone. We strive to help every child reach their full potential by utilizing varied therapeutic means to connect with them at their developmental level. We work together with you to enhance the many abilities that your child has and to flourish in their relationships. We are here to help.
