I enjoy helping children overcome and heal from life's challenges. I believe that teamwork with parents is critical to kid's healing and healthy development. With over 25 years of professional experience, I specialize in treating children ages 2-18. I offer effective evidence based treatment for early childhood through adolescence. Children's stumbling blocks can be rooted in divorce, learning or developmental disabilities, loss, grief, behavioral difficulties, trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety and academic struggles. Counseling can help turn these struggles into valuable life experience and increased confidence.
I understand children's needs in the context of their development, relationship with their parents, family and friends, and school functioning. I develop individual plans with parents and kids to help them restore balance and happiness in their lives.
I have advanced training in play therapy, child development, trauma (Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR), Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) for behavioral and attention difficulties, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, divorce, and family therapy. Please call me to discuss your child's needs and plan for healing.
