I have interest/experience with children/families, teens, and adults—providing help with self-care for counselors and other working professionals, self-care/psycho-ed for those with autoimmune disease/mood disorders conjoining nutrition and mental health, addictions—like digital/screen addictions, anxiety/depression, and those struggling with grief/loss.
“What we call human nature in actuality is human habit.” —Jewel. Our lives are a summation of moment to moment decisions. As such, they can become slightly to severely complicated. I specialize in EMDR work but take a holistic approach to ensure my clients are “living their best life” by making great choices to thrive and become autonomous in their own lives. Sometimes mental health problems are merely just bad choices problems. I strive to help clients "get out of their own way" and make choices most conducive to allowing the human experience heal and progress, by re-aligning with nature via lifestyle choices!

Some reasons to consider psychotherapy for your child or family member include: sudden changes in behavior, increased moodiness, an increase in temper tantrums, difficulty getting along with friends, physical or sexual abuse, loss of a loved one, divorce, excessive crying or sadness, increased worrying, aggression, questions about sexuality, self-injurious behavior or thoughts of suicide, trauma, illness, and anger. Parents and caregivers know their child best. If you think something is off, then seek a consultation. I will listen intently and conduct a detailed interview to determine if services are appropriate. If they are, then together we will set goals and develop a treatment plan.

Sessions with children and teens can vary, including processing environmental changes, developing relaxation skills such as deep breathing, and increasing coping skills.
We all need support at times. I cater my approach based on the needs of each individual and my goal is to help navigate change or obstacles while fostering growth. I am trauma-informed and my approach to therapy is warm and person-centered. The idea of processing and working through trauma can be overwhelming. You are the expert on yourself, and I aim to provide a space where you can be authentic and feel safe to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in 44136 provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time (likely in fewer than six sessions), the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in 44136 build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
