In our office we welcome you, we embrace and celebrate each person, and validate the contributions you bring to our world.
My “theoretical home” is psychodynamic with emphasis on family systems and relational, developmental and attachment theories. As an Infant Mental Health Specialist I incorporate therapeutic play, Dyadic, CPP, with Trauma Focus and CBT approaches. I also incorporate Person-Centered principles, adoption issues, couple’s issues into portfolio of interventions.
There is much truth to the phrase, “It takes a village”; we know that from infancy as we begin perfecting our skills to connect. No matter what our role, relationships can be hard; when struggles seem up-the-hill we may need help to reconnect with others, with ourselves, or with life itself. Let us help you find tools that can help you succeed. Contact us!
