Welcome! I am so thrilled you are here. As a dedicated mental health professional, specializing in play therapy, I work with toddlers, children, adolescents, and teens to help them tackle tough situations. My approach is rooted in understanding the unique developmental stages and emotional needs of children, allowing me to foster a safe and supportive environment where they can navigate their emotions. Utilizing evidence-based practices, I help young ones develop essential coping skills and resilience. My passion lies in collaborating with families to support each child's unique journey and celebrate their victories along the way.
Together, we will explore your child’s big feelings, turn behavioral actions into healthy communication, process grief, trauma, explore attachment styles, develop healthy boundaries, improve self-regulation, self-esteem, and confidence. I am passionate about this work and I am privileged to support our littles overcome challenges to discover their strengths.
I invite you to reach out! As a parent myself, I understand your parental fears, frustrations, as well as the triumphs. You are not alone in this! If you are seeking a compassionate partner in your child's mental health journey, let’s work together to help them thrive and navigate life with confidence and joy. Ready to play? Please reach out today!
