As a child therapist specializing in play therapy, I create a safe, nurturing space where children ages 2-11 can explore, grow, and thrive. I understand that every child's journey is unique, especially when navigating challenges like ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, behavioral difficulties, OCD, or grief. Through playful, engaging sessions, I help children build their confidence, develop crucial skills, and find their own special ways to shine. Parents, you're not alone in this journey! Whether through parent coaching or joint sessions with your child, we'll develop strategies that bring more harmony to your family.
My approach focuses on strengthening executive functioning, fostering social connections, building self-esteem, and helping your child manage anxiety, obsessive thoughts, or emotional challenges. My extensive training allows me to offer comprehensive support tailored to your family's needs. I bring both expertise and heart to our work together.
As a play therapist, I create a warm, safe space where children can grow and thrive. I understand the unique challenges your family faces, whether it's anxiety, autism, ADHD, or other hurdles. Together, we can help your child build confidence and skills while supporting you on this parenting journey. I'd love to explore how we can work together.

I work with children who are struggling with symptoms associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Intellectual Disability, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Depression. During our initial session, I will take a thorough history and together with the parent devise a plan of treatment. We will decide what modality of therapy may work best and make a roadmap of the steps to come.

I often use family play therapy approaches, including AutPlay and Child-Parent Psychotherapy. The child's family is the most important change-agent in the relationship. In helping the family to make changes in the child's routine environment, we can increase the progress seen in the child.
