About
Through the activity of play I help children to make sense of difficult life experiences (e.g. divorce, death of a loved one) and navigate the big feelings (e.g. anxiety, anger, sadness) that are often at the root of challenging behaviour. I support children and their caregivers become more able to cope with how they are feeling, develop insight, emotional intelligence and confidence.
Play is a child’s natural way of communicating; we can explore various issues they might find difficult to express in other ways. I work with both the parents and the children to understand and address the roots of the problem, and interpret the behaviour with insight into the underlying emotions, in order to impact lasting change
I believe that the parent-child relationship is the foundation of children's mental wellness. You are what your child needs. Let me help you build on that foundation.
