Hello, I'm Kate, a dedicated child therapist with a passion for helping children and families overcome challenges and heal from trauma. With a background in working with at-risk adolescents and families, I've honed my skills in creating a safe and supportive environment for children to thrive. I now specialize in using play therapy and a variety of evidence-based techniques to assist children who have faced domestic violence, divorce, traumatic events, behavioral issues, anxiety, fear, and impulsivity. I firmly believe that children communicate through play, and it's through this medium that I listen and connect with them.
I understand that parents play a crucial role in a child's healing journey. I am dedicated to empowering parents by strengthening their parenting skills and involving them in the therapeutic process. Together, we work as a team to ensure your child's emotional well-being and growth. My training includes play therapy, art therapy, CBT, and TF-CBT.
To make accessing therapy easier for you, I offer in-home and school-based sessions in northern/central Palm Beach County. This ensures that your child receives therapy in a comfortable and familiar environment. If you're seeking support for your child's emotional, behavioral, or social challenges, please don't hesitate to reach out.

I work with children who may have difficulty managing or expressing their emotions appropriately for a myriad of reasons from parents divorcing to experiencing trauma. We work on increasing emotional intelligence, learning and using coping skills, social skills, and learning how to verbalize and ask for help. I also help parents learn new skills too!

I use mostly non-directive child centered play therapy in my work because I believe that children naturally want to heal and know the best way to get themselves there if I provide them with a safe environment and the necessary tools. Play is a child's language, toys are their words, and I have the honor of being able to listen.
