We all struggle from time to time. Children in particular are learning every day how to pick up and carry on after they've faced something that really challenged them. But sometimes they get stuck and don't know what to do. Divorce, bullying, changing families, and so many other life changes that are out of our control can have a drastic impact. They can lead us to withdraw, fall behind in school, act out at home, or worse. Whatever the issues you and your family may have, I believe that sessions with me can help you and your family to figure out where you're stuck and what we can do to move forward.
I have experience helping children, teens, & adults in hospital/residential facilities, out-patient offices, schools, community centers, and homes. I'm trained in: Dialectic-Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Child-Centered Play Therapy, Theraplay, Parent-Child Interactive Therapy, Schema Therapy, & Child-Parent Psychotherapy.
Feel free to reach out so we can see if we would work well together. Regardless of how you reach out, I'll hear you out. I'm currently running into billing problems with Anthem/BCBS, so I'm not taking new people under that insurance. I'm willing to work out a payment plan if we choose not to use insurance.
