Childhood and adolescence are periods of growth, change, and self-discovery, but they can also bring emotional, behavioral, academic, and social challenges. I work with children, adolescents, and their families who are struggling with anxiety, ADHD, autism spectrum differences, depression, grief, anger, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and school-related concerns. Through a collaborative and supportive process, I help young people better understand themselves, strengthen resilience, develop healthier coping strategies, and move toward greater confidence and well-being.
With over 20 years of experience, I help children and adolescents facing emotional, behavioral, academic, and social challenges. Using Jungian psychotherapy, play therapy, and Jungian sandplay therapy, I create a supportive environment where young people can develop confidence, resilience, self-understanding, and healthier ways of coping.
Seeking support for your child can feel overwhelming, and you don't have to navigate it alone. Therapy can help young people better understand their emotions, strengthen confidence, and develop healthier ways of coping. I welcome the opportunity to discuss how I may support your child and family.
