I work in a group practice, Individual and Family Connection, where we work with children and parents, offering them the support they need to better understand their child, or help them through a difficult time. Children communicate their needs and struggles through behaviors, which can feel overwhelming or confusing to the parents trying to help them. I assist parents in exploring the meaning behind these behaviors by taking time to reflect on the relationships, interactions, and caregiving responses to improve the overall quality of the relationship.
I approach each relationship in a collaborative, positive, and brain-based way and use an expressive, artistic, and playful approach in my work with children and families. I use a creative and welcoming manner that allows me to quickly connect with my clients and help them feel safe.
Together with your support systems, we will work to promote balance and well-being for your child. I look forward to connecting you and your family.
