Helping Children Adjust to the changes in life. Confident and Understood Children make well-adjusted adults.
Is your child struggling with anxiety, frequent meltdowns, sadness, school stress, difficulty making friends, or behaviors that are hard to understand or redirect? Perhaps your child comes to you with worries, becomes overwhelmed by transitions, withdraws from the family, or has difficulty expressing what is happening inside. When a child is struggling, the entire family can feel the impact. Parents may find themselves wondering whether they are doing enough or how they can help without making things worse.
I provide a warm and developmentally appropriate environment, both in-person and virtually, where children can express themselves, build emotional awareness, and learn healthier ways to respond to difficult experiences. Depending on your child’s age and needs, therapy may include play, creative activities, conversation, cognitive behavioral strategies,
emotional-regulation skills, and parent collaboration. I help children experiencing anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns, family changes, grief, peer difficulties, low self-esteem, trauma, school-related challenges, ADHD, and possible neurodivergence.
Your child is more than a diagnosis or a difficult behavior. Reach out for a free consultation.
