I have worked locally and internationally helping children, adolescent and adults navigate through difficult times to reach a variety of personal goals.
Welcome, I am passionate about your potential to see change. I have noticed often people accept a harmful pattern, negative emotion or unrealized potential as a permanent part of their lives. I believe change is not only possible, but attainable. If one puts in the effort you can gain insight, recognize patterns, and start on your journey towards change. Your goal may be feeling more balanced or it could be for your child to display improved focus or self esteem. Let us partner together to make pivotal transitions in your life.

Sometimes, in life, we find ourselves repeating the same patterns over again. We tell ourselves we will not make the same mistake each time, but we find ourselves repeating the same mistakes we promised not to repeat. We may look to our partners and say they are the problem; we may see everything as a problem except ourselves. And as we do that, we stay in a state of unhappiness and remain a victim of ourselves. So we must admit first that we are the problem, and then we must explore deep within the self the root cause of the situations we have experienced that have created those unhealthy patterns so we can heal and grow.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Navarre, FL 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, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Navarre 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.
