I have been working with children and adolescents (ages 8-18) for almost 30 years. My areas of expertise include working with youth who are experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, poor coping skills and trauma. My root philosophy is cognitive-behaviorally based (our thoughts & behaviors are connected and affect each other) but am not a classically trained CBT therapist. I use an eclectic approach using tools from a wide range of theories. I'm committed to treating the whole person and not just a diagnosis or label.
I use play therapy techniques with younger children. A child's natural way of experiencing, communicating and mastering their world and relationships is through play. By using direct and indirect play therapy techniques children are best able to express themselves, learn new adaptive skills, process trauma and grow. For tweens & teens I use talk therapy.
I believe that everyone is capable of moving past their current struggles and challenges. Start by building a strong foundation upon which change, growth, and emotional well being can thrive.
