Is your child struggling with big emotions, challenging behaviors, anxiety, depression or anger? This can leave parents feeling helpless, frustrated, overwhelmed and exhausted. I am here to help. I specialize in using play therapy techniques to help children communicate and process their emotions in a safe and supportive environment.
I'm a licensed independent social worker and registered play therapist passionate about helping children who are exhibiting challenging behaviors, involved with DHS or who have experienced trauma. My work focuses on using play therapy techniques to help children communicate and process their emotions in a safe and supportive environment.
