Do you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or at a loss about how to help your child or teen?
My job is to partner with you and your child to reduce conflict, strengthen family relationships, and help kiddos process big feelings through play therapy, EMDR (trauma) therapy, sandplay, and other interventions. Play therapy is a child's natural language. I also use EMDR in therapy to help clients move past disturbing memories or difficult situations.
