Do you feel like no matter how much you support your sensitive kid, they still shut down, avoid things, or become overwhelmed and anxious when they don't feel sure of themselves? Maybe they're hard on themselves, quick to give up, or are starting to believe they're not capable even when you know they are. You might also be up late Googling for solutions, wondering what else to try. I specialize in helping sensitive kids feel less anxious. The ones who you know are capable but THEY don't quite believe it yet.
In play therapy, your child isn't just talking. Through a safe, supportive play space, they begin to take risks, problem-solve, and build a sense of "I got this" in a way that sticks outside of the therapy room. Over time, this often looks like your child trying new things, feeling less overwhelmed by challenges, and more secure in who they are.
Reaching out doesn’t mean you’ve failed... it means you care deeply and want support. Play therapy can help your child feel more confident, understood and secure in who they are. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Reach out to schedule a free 15 minute intro call!

Research shows that your connection with your therapist is more important than the type of therapy they do. With that being said, I pull from a variety of modalities. I predominately use Child-Centered Play Therapy, Gestalt Play Therapy and person-centered in practice.
