"I have over 30 years of experience helping children and their parents. I help children who are experiencing emotional or behavioral problems in school, with their peers or with their families. I use a therapeutic approach that combines talk therapy (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and play therapy, in an environment that is safe, nurturing and fun.
