I strongly believe that play is the best way for a child to express themself in their natural way of communication.
Hello, thanks for stopping by! I wanted to start off by saying that if you’re new to counseling or looking for a new therapist, welcome. Whether you’ve done this before or looking to start with the first steppingstone, counseling can be a scary new journey. I know it can be terrifying to unlock parts of yourself you pushed away, I know it can also be rewarding to learn something about yourself that you’ve always thought was there. Regardless of the counseling you need, it’s a journey that I am more than grateful to be walking alongside you on.

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, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Daytona Beach build great relationships with the child and the parent.
