It offers clarity and insight into how a child interacts with the world.
Be the therapist you needed when you were a child." This mantra guides me every time I step into a session with a child. In today's world, everyone has a unique role in a child's life. And as a psychotherapist, my role is distinct yet profoundly significant. I am neither a parent worried about attachment nor a teacher focused on academics. Instead, I am a safe haven where a child can speak freely, without fear of judgment or misunderstanding. However, my work extends beyond individual therapy sessions. True and lasting change emerges from the family dynamic. My goal is to support not just the child, but the entire family.
