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.
