The best description of what I do after 30 years of success is that I am a stress management expert for ages 2 and up. After training together in family therapy and Child Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), my mother and I made our dream a reality and founded The Hamilton Practice in 1995. Working with survivors of childhood abuse and trauma in Harlem for a combined 17 years, we were stunned by the miracles that unfolded as we applied the powers of connection, insight, and humor. My mother left her body in 2021, so you will be seeing only me in front of you, but you will be benefiting from the wisdom and synergy of two generations.
