Therapists for Children in Quincy, FL
Like the lotus flower, we often begin in murky waters—navigating pain, uncertainty, trauma, loss, or life transitions that feel overwhelming. Yet the lotus does not bloom in spite of the mud; it blooms because of it. Its roots anchor deeply in the darkness before rising steadily toward the light. I believe the same is true for people. The challenges you face, do not define you. They are part of your soil. With the right support, insight, and tools, those experiences can become the foundation for resilience. As a licensed mental health provider, I view each client as capable of profound transformation.

Hi I'm Grace!
I typically support young adults, adolescents, and families who are navigating anxiety, relationship issues and family conflicts.
I love working with people who feel overwhelmed — overthinking everything, shutting down, getting irritable, or stuck in the same patterns. Life, relationships, or responsibilities can suddenly feel heavier than they should, and it’s exhausting to carry alone.
My goal is to create a space where you can talk openly, feel understood, and not worry about being judged. Together, we’ll figure out what’s going on and build practical tools so things feel more manageable and less stuck.

For over a decade, I've provided therapy for children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families within a number of settings, including: my private practice, two outpatient mental health centers, two hospitals, two nursing homes, several schools, a substance abuse treatment program, an eating disorder treatment center, and a community college.
I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families. I try to offer affordable mental health counseling, because I believe that therapy should be accessible to all who need it. I also offer art therapy, play therapy, and life coaching. I want to help you to feel better--and help you to achieve the goals that matter to you. If you want, you can try a phone or online session (so you can do therapy from the comfort of home). I really look forward to working with you. At times, therapy takes effort, but it's rewarding to see the results!

I work with adults, adolescents, and children who benefit from slowing down and exploring their inner world in a different way.
As a Board-Certified Art Therapist, I use structured creative processes to help make internal experiences visible and more understandable. Rather than pushing for immediate answers, we externalize emotions, patterns, and parts of self through art, metaphor, and visual exploration so insight can emerge naturally.

See More Therapists FAQ - About Child Therapy
When does a child need to see a therapist?
Children naturally experience emotional ups and downs. Sometimes, though, they need support from a professional. A child may benefit from therapy if their emotions or behaviors change significantly within a short period of time. For example, if a child usually spends time with friends after school but begins isolating in their room, further inquiry is warranted. Other areas for concern include altered sleep patterns, lack of appetite, intense anger, irritability, or hopelessness, or developmental regression in young children (bedwetting, thumb-sucking).
What can a child therapist help with?
A therapist can help with any difficult experience a child may encounter growing up, including learning problems or anxiety related to school, relationship challenges with friends or parents, bullying, intense emotions or phobias, divorce and family dynamics, or the death of a pet or loved one. A therapist can help children process their experience and develop coping skills in an age-appropriate way
What therapy types are most suitable for children?
Children can benefit from different forms of therapy, including family therapy, parent-child interaction therapy, play therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and exposure therapy, depending on their condition. Play therapy is a great option for younger children who may not be able to fully articulate their feelings. In this approach, kids play with toys and games while a therapist observes and helps the child express their emotions and develop coping skills.
Do I need to attend therapy with my child?
Parents are an integral part of a child’s therapy, but the specifics of their involvement vary. If your child is young, you may attend most or all sessions; if your child is older, you may attend a few sessions or none; sometimes a therapist may ask you to have a session on your own. Whatever the arrangement, you should expect to work collaboratively with the therapist, your child, and your family members to take steps to help support your child.
How can I tell if a therapist is a good fit for my child?
A child needs to feel comfortable opening up about their thoughts and feelings, so if your child feels a sense of comfort, ease, and trust with their therapist, that’s a great sign. In addition, a therapist is a good fit for your child if the two can communicate well together; a clinician should be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and in an age-appropriate manner.
