As a Child Therapist, I appreciate the resiliency within each child, teen, and young adult I work with. They have many of the qualities to cope with day-to-day life and stressors.. it's my role to help identify, celebrate, and strengthen the ones they have and introduce new ones that could help. Whether the goal is to help youth with ADHD (or ADHD characteristics), anxiety, emotional regulation, or trauma, I can help both young people and their families navigate their unique pathways to wellbeing and good mental health. Step by step along your own path, I'll walk with you while you need some extra support.
Therapy does not always need to be talk therapy - so much can be learned through the therapeutic use of play! With a client-centered approach, I work with clients to provide a safe space to explore challenges and match coping strategies to the style of the client. Not every strategy works for every person, and that's okay... we'll find what's best for them.
Children, teens, and young adults are navigating a new world - they face the usuals - navigating peer pressure, comparing themselves, struggling to regulate overwhelming emotions, etc. These concerns are then exacerbated by technology and social media, hectic schedules, and busy families. I'm here to support you on your pathway to wellness and well-being.
