Kids process their emotions through the language of play. Child-centered play therapy provides a safe, supportive environment where your child can freely express themselves, integrate their experiences, and practice regulation, building the connection and trust they need to become happier and more confident little humans.

Fostering secure attachments between children and caregivers is the foundation of our work together. Attachment-focused therapy nurtures your child’s developing brain and nervous system, helping build the sense of safety and connection they need to thrive.

When kids have a difficult past, there may be lingering effects that can impact their behavior and emotions. I create a supportive environment that acknowledges that these adverse experiences affect the developing brain. As we work together to process and integrate traumatic experiences, children will feel validated, empowered, and better equipped to cope with life's challenges.

As a Licensed School Counselor, I’ve spent many years in elementary schools, so I have a deep understanding of the place where children spend a huge chunk of their time! I’m skilled at advocating for children’s needs and working collaboratively with teachers and schools to help your child get the support they need.
