About My Clients
I work well with children from toddlers to teens on a variety of challenges that get in the way of having a happy and healthy life including anxiety, depression, grief, domestic violence, physical and sexual abuse, peer and social difficulties, school difficulties and life changes such as divorce. I offer a trauma informed approach and have an extensive history of working with young children and trauma.
My Background and Approach
I have received specialized training for children and adolescents utilizing EMDR and have found this to be a powerful tool for healing from trauma and adversity. Additionally, I utilize play therapy, sandtray therapy and other creative means of expression such as art and music to allow children to find ways to express what they are thinking and feeling. This builds the framework to strengthen their relationship with you and to create a stronger bond and attachment for enhanced communication going forward. I believe that the connections we make with others through understanding allow us to heal and create positive change. I will make it a priority to work hard to help everyone in your family feel heard, understood and valued and will offer a warm, nurturing approach to build relationships with trust and respect.
