If you’re the parent of a child or teen struggling with anxiety, depression, or the effects of bullying, you may notice them withdrawing, feeling overwhelmed, or losing interest in things they once enjoyed. They might be struggling with low self-esteem, feeling isolated, or finding it difficult to manage their emotions. What they want, deep down, is to feel understood, supported, and empowered to stand up to their challenges. They need a safe space to express their emotions, learn healthy coping strategies, and rebuild their confidence. Together, we can work to help them regain a sense of control.
I can help your child or teen navigate anxiety, depression, and bullying by using evidence-based approaches like CBT and play therapy. With CBT, I can help your child understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, empowering them to challenge negative thought patterns.
I know how hard it can be to see your child or teen struggle. It’s tough to watch them feel overwhelmed or shut down, and as a parent, you may be unsure of how to best support them. You’re not alone in this, and I can help your child have a safe space to work through their feelings, build resilience, and find a way forward. Reach out today!

For younger children, play therapy allows them to express their feelings in a creative and non-verbal way, helping them process emotions through play. Therapy sessions will feel supportive and collaborative, focusing on creating a safe space where they can explore their challenges, gain confidence, and learn to thrive. For teens I use CBT to help them address negative thought patterns.

I like to use a combination of CBT and play therapy when working with children and teens. CBT is great for helping kids and teens identify and change negative thought patterns. Play therapy is particularly effective with younger children, as it allows them to express their emotions and experiences through play, which can be more comfortable than traditional talk therapy.
