We’re in an unusually stressful time, and that can feel especially overwhelming for children and teens trying to understand the world. They don’t have to face that alone. I offer a safe, compassionate space for young people—from preschoolers to young adults—to explore their feelings around adoption, foster care, medical trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and life transitions. I also collaborate with parents to craft nurturing strategies that are tailored to their child’s needs.
I’m a therapist trained in adoption‑competent care, with specialties in adoption, foster care, medical trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and life transitions. As a Registered Play Therapist and EMDR clinician, I help children and teens process experiences using play—their most natural language—paired with evidence‑based trauma healing through EMDR.
I’m excited to meet your child and your family exactly as you are. Together, we’ll cultivate a trusting, developmentally sensitive connection that supports real and lasting growth.
