It would be my pleasure to support you and your child in your "feeling & healing" work! It really is a privilege to get to know you and your child, while providing a non-judgmental and encouraging space for the hard times of life.
Available on Sundays! I specialize in supporting children and parents experiencing anxiety, grief/loss, trauma, chronic illness, neurodiversity, and life changes. Is your child going through a difficult time? Maybe you’ve noticed a change in their mood, challenges with communicating what they're feeling, or worries about their self-esteem? Or maybe you are seeking support with parenting through a hard time or transition in the family? Providing your child (or yourself!) a comforting space for creative expression, naming and exploring feelings, and open communication with therapy can make a difference!
