Are you a parent of a child who is struggling? Do you feel like you have to do it all? You don’t have to do this alone. Humans develop in relationship to others, and we heal that way too. My focus is on childrens’ relationships with their caregivers - from processing challenging life events to managing hard feelings. The children I work with may be struggling with worry about friendships and family relationships, challenges with big emotions, doubts about their worth or appearance, academic difficulties, or navigating grief and loss. I support children in navigating these and many other challenging realities of growing up.
I have over ten years of experience working with youth and families to navigate the endless pressure on caregivers to do it all, including having all the answers when their child is struggling. I have a background in play therapy, movement-based therapy, and early childhood consultation. I have worked in both outpatient programs and schools throughout MA.
Depending on what your family is experiencing, I might meet individually with your child, with your whole household, or individually with caregivers to target the best supports for your challenges. In our initial consultation we will work together to find the services that best fit your situation. Please contact me to arrange a free phone consultation.
