I am currently accepting clients on a limited basis! I have been working with neurodivergent children and teens for over 12 years in the mental health field. I feel confident in helping neurodivergent kiddos help to find their voice and name their emotions. I can help children and teens with self-esteem struggles, depression, trauma, anxiety, and other common psychological struggles.

I use gestalt, relational, and child-centered play therapy. In essence, this means that I will start by accepting your child as they are in order to help them enact change. Your child and I will work together to build a strong relationship through play, and they will be able to direct the play in the way they wish to target their psychological goals.

Parenting is a difficult job when all is running smoothly, and it is even more difficult when you are worried about your child's mental health. Reach out to me today to see how I can help your child grow their self-esteem and nurture their inner growth.

I use a combination of gestalt, relational, and child-centered play therapy. Gestalt play therapy moves to accept the child as they are in order to help them enact change. Relational play therapy understands that the core indicators of success of therapy is the relationship between patient and therapist. Child-centered means the child gets direct the themes and the nature of the play.
