Children are one of life's greatest and most challenging gifts. We long to protect them and set them up for all the best things that life can offer. Unfortunately, life can take wild turns and our world can be painfully ugly. Even with our best efforts, children can end up feeling hurt, anxious, angry, sad, disconnected and confused. While we can't walk a child's path for them, we can provide them with empowering spaces to learn to confidently walk their own. Unlike adults, children do not have language to process all they feel and experience, but they have play.
Gary Landreth states that "Toys are children's words and play is their language." As a Registered Play Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor and former elementary and middle school teacher, I am humbled and honored to walk along side children to help them make sense of their world through Child-Centered Play Therapy.
Child-Centered Play Therapy fosters communication and emotional wellness while enhancing social relationships and increasing personal strengths. I have worked with adults and children from all walks of life, and believe that every single one has value and worth. You are not your story. You are not alone on this journey, and I truly hope that you reach out.
