My ideal clients are children who have experienced trauma, disruption, or challenges affecting their emotions, behavior, or relationships. They may be neurodivergent, in foster care, or struggling with anxiety, anger, or emotional regulation. They need a safe, predictable space to express themselves, feel understood, and learn coping skills. Their goal is to build confidence, manage emotions, and develop healthy ways to connect with others. They want stability, understanding, and connection—tools that give them a sense of safety, belonging, and hope for a brighter future.
I help children heal from trauma, manage emotions, and build resilience through play-based therapy and trauma-focused CBT. I also support parents and caregivers to reinforce coping skills and strengthen connections at home and beyond.
I provide a warm, supportive space where children can explore their feelings, process challenges, and learn healthy ways to cope. I work alongside caregivers to offer guidance and reassurance, helping families create connection, understanding, and lasting growth together.
