With children, I communicate with words kids relate to: play! Using play therapy, I help kids express themselves, change behaviors, and improve their communication and problem-solving skills.
Caring and strength-based counseling allows families, kids, and parents to rediscover old strengths, learn and develop new ones, all of which make it possible to walk a different path, away from problems and towards new pleasures. I can help you experience greater mastery and back in control of your life. We can handle a lot, but sometimes one extra stressor or life-changing incident throws us off balance. Then we feel anger, anxiety, and/or depression. Adding insult to injury, these negative emotions further stress us out, making it harder to find solutions and regain our balance in life.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Michigan provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time (likely in fewer than six sessions), the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Michigan build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
