I deeply enjoy meeting with people who believe a better life is possible but lack the tools, self-esteem or support needed to overcome old patterns and create a meaningful existence. In my playroom, kids learn to communicate, manage behaviors, grow confidence, problem solve, express themselves and relate to others in healthy ways. Willing caregivers learn the language of play and connect authentically with their children. Adolescents or adults who want to work with me can let their guard down and build a life they are proud of after harmful relationships, painful events or difficulties feeling comfortable in their own skin.
I have trained extensively in the use of play therapy for ages 3-12, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Jungian Therapy and Gestalt. Every individual deserves freedom and agency in their treatment, so I encourage experimentation with symbol, breath, EMDR, movement, writing, play, art, conversation, and imagination to discover what soothes.
It takes vulnerability to ask for help from a stranger, and this courage is rare. But sharing your life with someone who understands how impossible it feels to face things alone, and who manages to find some humor and beauty in the chaos, can be a much-needed relief. Please reach out if you think I may be able to help you or your child get to a better place.

We will dive into the current struggles you are facing and co-create a focused yet flexible plan for treatment. Though my therapeutic approach is mostly client-led, I may recommend evidence-based interventions, collaboration with medical professionals, and challenging ways of relating. Although most begin to feel better right away, this will feel more like a journey than a quick fix.

Due to the relational and physical aspects that make play therapy effective, I only offer this service in-person. I want to work with caregivers who self-reflect, are willing to try new approaches and who will get involved in the process. I do not "fix" kids, I accept them as they are and coach parents until kids feel empowered to change. Telehealth and virtual EMDR available for adults only.
