If you're a parent seeking support for your child, you’re looking for a therapist who radiates warmth and positivity—someone who can create a safe and nurturing space where your child can heal and grow. You want an experienced professional with over two decades of expertise in play therapy and trauma recovery, who truly understands the unique needs of children aged 3 to 17. Whether your child is navigating PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, depression, or other challenges, you’re seeking more than just a therapist—you want a compassionate partner who will walk alongside your family on the path to healing and resilience.
With 20+ years of experience in trauma recovery and play therapy, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for healing. Specializing in PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, and depression, I use proven techniques tailored to each client. Whether supporting children or adults, I’m dedicated to compassionate care, helping clients build resilience and rediscover their strengths.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by your child’s healing journey, know you’re not alone. Supporting a child through trauma, anxiety, or behavioral struggles can feel isolating, but it doesn’t have to be. I offer a safe, compassionate space where your child can heal, and you can feel supported. Together, we’ll take the first step toward healing and growth.
