My work is informed by attachment-based and trauma-informed approaches, including ARC (Attachment, Regulation, and Competency), allowing me to support children with anxiety, emotional dysregulation, trauma, and behavioral challenges.
If your child is having big emotions, shutting down, or acting in ways that leave you feeling confused or overwhelmed, you are not alone. Often, what looks like defiance, anxiety, or behavior problems is actually a child trying to communicate something they don’t yet have the words for.
I work with children and teens through play therapy, sandplay and expressive arts while also helping parents understand what their child’s behavior is really saying and how to respond in ways that build connection, emotional safety, and resilience.

Perhaps you’re the one everyone depends on — capable on the outside, but anxious or overwhelmed underneath. Your mind replays conversations, anticipates worst-case scenarios, or struggles to turn off at night. You may be navigating a difficult relationship, family tension, people-pleasing patterns, or stress that never seems to let up. I work with teen girls, adults, and couples who feel this way.
You want relief - not just from anxiety, but from constant pressure. You want healthier boundaries, steadier relationships, and the ability to respond instead of react. Most of all, you want to feel calm, confident, and grounded again.

Honest self-reflection is the answer to so many of our problems. At many points throughout our lives, we learn to ease life’s burdens by shutting down, acting out, or running away in attempts to find relief. Even our most destructive coping strategies were often the best answers we could find at the time to manage our anxieties, our desires, and our pain. When we allow ourselves the opportunity to slow down and reflect on our lives, both past and present, we deepen our understanding and insight. And, as we explore our lives without moralizing and harshness, we develop genuine compassion and greater trust in ourselves.

Attachment-based Therapists
Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
