Let's face it, families struggle & face challenges but there are times you feel your children & challenges are beyond what most would consider normal. You hear others talk about their experiences with their children & you know that it's never been like that for you. The issues they are having at school, with peers & at home are impacting your mental clarity, relationships & lust for life. You don't know who to ask for help; nor who to trust. It leaves you feeling angry, scared, resentful, & ultimately alone. You don't know if therapy can help, but you're willing to do whatever it takes.

You want to enjoy being with your children & family again without the stress & anxiety of anticipating a meltdown at school or the rejection of peers. You want to have have more energy & enjoyment in everyday life. Imagine having fun experiences with your family while seeing your children flourish. I can help you get there.

As a clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience, I am able to address issues from a foundational and functional standpoint. Featuring specialized alternative and holistic programs as well as traditional approaches you can begin seeing improvements in your child almost immediately, so visit my website and schedule your FREE consultation today!

Art Classes

Hosted by

Melissa Bianchini

Within each art class, we explore an individual’s artistic skills to continuously build their creativity and development in not just art and craft projects but in their communication skills and to help enhance their self-esteem. Art can be a unique and creative approach to further an individual’s ability to communicate their feelings and emotions for themselves and others in a new way. All sessions in art are small in size to address the needs of every participant and are based on skills and projects for their age level. ALL art supplies for the projects during the sessions are included in the fee.
