Children are not mini-adults, despite their best efforts to convince us otherwise! Children are ever-changing, efficiently growing into their next phase of development every-single-day. Imagine, tripling in size and skills in just a year! To make things more complicated, children learn, grow, and communicate through play. No wonder it can be hard to fully know how to help our children through life's surprises.

It is important to consider physical, mental and emotional health to increase our quality of life. We don’t have control over some circumstances in life, but we can work to optimally navigate what comes our way. Cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, mindfulness for stress reduction, managing occupational strain and psychoeducation are some of the techniques I find helpful.

You might be feeling a bit worn down, overwhelmed, burnt out, maybe even hopeless that you will ever feel “ok” again. Life gets overwhelming, for everyone. But you don’t have to go through it alone. As someone who has wrestled with seasons of anxiety and depression, I understand how intimidating it can feel to start therapy. Over the course of my personal therapy, I have come to realize that the most helpful role a therapist can take is to hold space for hope. I have experience working with neurodiverse children and couples and can help guide you.
