"Birds fly, fish swim, and children play." -Garry Landreth. I believe play is the means through which children process their experiences, and Play Therapy provides a safe space for children to work through challenges. I have been working with children, teens, and families for over two years, particularly with youth with severe mental and behavioral challenges. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked for over a decade with families experiencing domestic violence. In each of these settings, I have seen the benefits Play Therapy techniques provide children and their families.

Life is relationship. People come to therapy because their relationships seem strained: You feel misunderstood by your partner, fights increasing, the distance between you growing.

Perhaps you have not succeeded in creating the fulfilling relationship you desire and suffer in its absence, flying solo- anxious, depressed, bored. Can't relax, overwhelmed by your job. The therapeutic work we do together can help you overcome these challenges, building more satisfying, loving relationships, a better fitting life.
