Hi! Welcome! My name is Kathie Costello. Are you a parent who’s concerned about your child? Your child may have started behaving differently, worrying excessively, or having difficulties at school. You love your child, and it’s so difficult to watch them struggle and not know how to help them! It has been my privilege for over 30 years to journey with children and families in both the educational system as a teacher, consultant and school administrator, and as a Professional Counselor-Registered Play Therapist -Supervisor. I would be honored to walk side by side with you on your journey toward real lasting HEALING and HOPE!
My specialized training as a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor, and Internationally Credentialed Sandtray Therapist, means I can provide you the time- tested real professional expertise, tools and age-appropriate support you or your child needs to thrive! I believe each client is unique and special, so your therapy should be too!
You are important, your family deserves to be cared for, and your story matters! If you’re looking for more than just a “band-aid”, I would love to join you on your path towards real, long-lasting change.
Call or Kathleen Costello now for a free 15 minute consultation - (480) 690-1431
