One minute your child is bursting with anger. The next, they are tearful and withdrawn. Or you find them frozen, paralyzed by fear. It's hard to see your child struggling. Maybe you don’t understand why it is happening. Or maybe there has been a major change in your child's life. These emotional outbursts and roller coaster of emotions are affecting everyone in the family. You’ve tried lots of things. Nothing is working. You feel stuck, overwhelmed, or even frustrated. You want things to get better… but you don’t know where to begin.
You don’t have to do it alone. I've got you. With child-centered, and cognitive-behavioral play therapy, I help children and teens who are struggling with big feelings and challenging behaviors. We will work together to better understand your child’s emotions, and you and your child will learn skills to address their individual needs.
Helping children and parents is my specialty. Let’s partner together. Let me support you and your child on the journey to healing. Your child will feel empowered and confident, leading to more connection and joy for the entire family. Together we can get through this. The next step is simple: call today for a free 15-minute phone consultation.

Children express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences through play. While adults use language, children are still developing this ability. I utilize play therapy to help children foster emotional and social development, improve self-esteem, enhance communication skills, promote problem-solving abilities, and increase self-regulation and coping strategies.
