We work with young children between 4-12 doing play therapy (which can incorporate CBT, Choice, or Solution Focused modalities); as well as tweens and teens, and individual adult clients. We can provide cooperative parenting sessions for divorced or divorcing couples, and parent coaching for families in need. Currently a Certified Play Therapist. Some of the issues we work with include: anxiety; separation anxiety; specific phobias; depression; oppositional defiant disorder; anger management; low self esteem; ADHD; coping with death; adjustments to divorce or new baby; sibling rivalry; and school issues.
Play Therapy is the child's natural form of communication. Through play children reveal unconscious fears, worries, thoughts and wishes. The toys are the child's words. The therapist looks for patterns or themes, and shares thoughts with the parents to develop a plan for healing.
We are one of the very few private practitioners that work with young children in our area. Call for information.
