Children and adults need a place to slow down and process the events, happenings, struggles and dynamics of their life. Play therapy is a magical modality that makes it safe for children to talk about and reflect on things that may be too scary or confusing to say in words. Through connected play, children can process the events of their life, practice problem solving, reflect and learn so much about themselves. Through play therapy children can can heal emotional pain and gain the confidence and clarity needed to thrive in their lives .
My work with parents is aimed at feeling filled up by and connected to your children instead of drained. Imagine feeling confident and proud in your parenting. This can happen through us connecting you back to you. We find the parts of the "old you" that have been sleeping and to meet parts of the “new you” that have unimaginable wisdom and creativity.
I am trained in Play Therapy, Child Parent Psychotherapy, Sand Tray, and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction. I am IFS informed, I have specialized training in supporting mothers and am a trained yoga teacher. When you are ready to step into a life of daily joy and contentment for you and your family send me an email and set up a free consultation today!
