I am accepting new clients as of 2/1/2025. Whether your child or teen is struggling with worries about school, friends, and life in general, or you, as a young adult, are navigating college life or a job transition, the stress can feel overwhelming. As a parent, you want your child to feel carefree again and simply enjoy being a kid. As a young adult, you want to find your footing while juggling friendships, work, and life's demands. Trauma, anxiety and life transitions can all make it difficult to feel like yourself. We will work together to sort through it all and support you in regaining balance.
In play therapy, we use toys, art, and movement to help your child process big feelings and build self-esteem. Teens and young adults are invited to get creative through sandtray and art. While art and play are always available, talking is welcome too! My specialty areas include trauma and anxiety. Specialty areas include EMDR and play therapy (CCPT/EMDR).
Through curiosity and collaboration, I support children, teens and young adults in moving forward. No matter how tricky everything feels right now, I’m here to support you or your child towards healing and growth. Please reach out to schedule a free 15-minute call to learn more about how I can help.
