As a parent, I'm sure you already know that little kids can come with some big challenges. From temper tantrums to power struggles; between dealing with hitting, kicking, screaming, crying - all of these things can leave you overwhelmed and at your wit's end. Or, maybe things are fairly peaceful between you and your child, but you want to make the most of those precious, early years and lay the foundation for healthy development. Or, maybe all of the above! When it comes to tackling the mental health problems of early childhood, I can help you and your little one get back to what really matters: playing, growing and learning.
I am a registered play therapist, and, with this formal training, I have advanced knowledge and skill in assisting very young children work through their emotions in a way that matches their stage of development. I also have extensive experience supporting parents in better understanding the root causes of their child's behavioral difficulties.
If you need extra support navigating the sometimes intense journey of parenthood, please do not hesitate to reach out. You can visit my website, call me, or email me to schedule a free, 30-minute telephone consultation. I will do my best to listen and help you figure out the best next steps for your family. I hope to hear from you soon!
