Assessments can be invaluable tools that provide diagnostic clarification, treatment recommendations, and the basis for academic accommodations. The therapeutic interventions I provide to young clients can be used to address a range of common challenges including, but not limited to emotional dysregulation and behavior problems. Based on the client, therapy may take various forms and could entail a talk or play-based approach. I regularly integrate parent or family sessions when appropriate.

I also have many years of experience working with children with neurodevelopmental conditions like autism and ADHD, who often have real difficulty with sleep.
Are you or your family struggling with sleep? Feeling like you’ve tried everything but still can’t get the sleep you need? Maybe you’re struggling to get out of bed in the morning. Or perhaps getting your teen to sleep is a nightly battle. It can be frustrating and exhausting when you or a member of your family aren’t sleeping. And when one family member isn’t sleeping well, the rest of the family usually aren’t sleeping well either. Relationships can become strained, work or school performance can suffer, and it can feel really isolating. Without good sleep it can feel like everything is falling apart.

My clients had difficulty dealing with stress and anxiety as a result of burnout due to caregiving responsibilities, personal high expectations, and lack of social support. In view of the Covid pandemia, the clients experienced challenging situations to survive and support themselves and their loved ones. The clients needed to gain greater awareness and acceptance, manage their own expectations, and set aside time for self-care. Stress and anxiety affect them physically, occupationally, and socially. The clients wanted to learn strategies to deal with their worries and anxiety about their future, and to improve in functioning.

One of the key challenges in the Mental Health space is the stigma and fear that still surrounds it. At the same time individuals continue to struggle in silence with their own issues and may face difficulties in addressing them. My focus is on creating an environment in which a client feels empowered and positive about addressing their own mental & emotional well-being needs. By inviting a proactive approach in the therapeutic process not only is a client able to address the specific challenges they are facing, it empowers them to create lasting and positive changes in their life.

To most people, the word trauma may be terrifying. In reality, it simply refers to a negative overwhelming experience or experiences. Overwhelming? Yes, any kind of overpowering experiences that cause extreme distress to the body, emotions, thoughts and mental states. These drive our physical and mental systems into survival modes of fight, flight or freeze in order to manage situations that are threatening or jeopardize survival. When left unaddressed, these modes may become the new operating system. Overtime, a traumatized person may get so used to operating in this mode, and it becomes an auto-pilot or default mode for them.

But many times because of increased stress and tension in life (either due to workplace or family issues) we find it difficult to access that potential within and thus, we suffer from different health problems. My passion is to help individuals & couples come out of their problems & rediscover happiness in their life. From my personal experience of 8+ years, I can confidently say that taking help during the difficult times and using the psychological services can save an individual from many personal and professional problems.

Do I need to attend therapy with my child?
Parents are an integral part of a child’s therapy, but the specifics of their involvement vary. If your child is young, you may attend most or all sessions; if your child is older, you may attend a few sessions or none; sometimes a therapist may ask you to have a session on your own. Whatever the arrangement, you should expect to work collaboratively with the therapist, your child, and your family members to take steps to help support your child.
How long are sessions with child therapists?
Children’s therapy sessions can last 30 minutes, 45 minutes, or 60 minutes. The length of the session may depend on your child’s age and the type of therapy practiced. You can discuss this with therapists you consult and the one you ultimately move forward with.
How do I get a child to agree to seek therapy?
The best approach is to have an open-ended conversation with your child about how they’re doing and what they might be struggling with. When you raise therapy, discuss the concept in an age-appropriate way, for example explaining that a therapist’s job is to help kids handle their hard or uncomfortable feelings. Frame therapy positively, as an opportunity to explore and build emotional skills—it’s an important tool in the toolbox to help kids feel their best.
How can I tell if a therapist is a good fit for my child?
A child needs to feel comfortable opening up about their thoughts and feelings, so if your child feels a sense of comfort, ease, and trust with their therapist, that’s a great sign. In addition, a therapist is a good fit for your child if the two can communicate well together; a clinician should be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and in an age-appropriate manner.
