| español I hope to serve young adults, children, teens, and their families in making better choices, exploring needs, developing strengths, healing trauma, and finding clarity towards change and growth. I would like to help you by fostering and facilitating change, creativity, and searching for solutions.
Through play and talk therapy, my professional experience can help others work on anxiety, depression, trauma, history of abuse, ADHD difficulties, mental health of students on the Autism Spectrum Disorder, impulse control challenges, mood inconsistency, family needs related to having a family member with special needs, and other drawbacks.
“Because children grow up, we think a child’s purpose is to grow up. But a child’s purpose is to be a child.” — Tom Stoppard
