Has your child started behaving out of character leading you to wonder what they are going through? Perhaps they are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, or anger. As a supervisee actively pursuing licensure for my PIP and RPT, I am passionate about utilizing play-based techniques and art therapies to promote growth for children ages 3-11. Play and creativity is the way a child communicates and processes the world around them. My goal is to offer a safe space for children to be themselves so they can navigate experiences through their own lenses.
Integral in my practice, is enhancing the family system as a whole. That is why I provide opportunities for parent and sibling involvement to support the healthy function of the family. Through this involvement, families learn understanding, connection, emotional intelligence, and how to set healthy boundaries.
Being a human is hard! We all need support and help on this journey. I would love to be alongside you and your kiddo while navigating through the messy life stuff.
