Do you find yourself always arguing with your child? Does it feel like your minds work completely opposite from each other? You all used to get along so well and now you feel so distant. Or maybe your child is struggling in school and you dread parent-teacher conferences. Maybe your child's friendships have changed in a profoundly negative way and you worry for your child. Growing up and becoming independent has never been more difficult for the younger generation, and I am here to assist your family in navigating these challenges.

I have experience working with adolescents and children as young as 4 years old, with a variety of Developmental Delays, Autism and Self-Regulatory issues.
I have always been amazed at the inherent healing qualities of art. By providing my clients with a safe holding environment, I pave the way to explore their concerns in therapy. Art has a way of quickly bringing issues from the unconscious into the conscious realm where they can be processed verbally or just witnessed. Art is wonderful for increasing tolerance of frustration, delay of gratification and learning to verbalize emotional states. I use all of the Expressive Arts to create individually tailored experientials to promote increased understanding and growth with my clients.

Overwhelmed, stressed and at a loss for what to do next. Hoping to find calm, a sense of control and room to breathe. Today’s daily life is, more often than not, exhausting; whether you’re a child, a teenager, young adult or parent.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Royal Oak, MI 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, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Royal Oak 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.
