About My Clients
I work with children who have a range of difficulties across all spectrums of social, emotional, and behavioral needs and diagnoses. In addition, I work with parents of special needs children, helping parents in how to parent their unique child, as well as individual therapeutic issues that may have arisen since becoming a parent. I also work with divorcing couples on how to co-parent their child. Finally, I work with adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, or life transitions.
My Background and Approach
I have been working with children and families for the past 12 years. My experience has been in therapeutic school settings as a therapeutic teacher and as an individual and group therapist for children, adults, siblings, parents, couples, and whole families. My treatment philosophy is a combination of strength-based approaches, psychodynamic theory and play-based strategies. I am trained in EMDR therapy and use this within my practice. I operate using a trauma lens and knowledge from attachment based therapy. I believe strongly that parents are the experts of their children, and that my job is to work in collaboration with parents/guardians, families, and children in order to instill change. I also work individually with adults. The goals may include parenting techniques or difficulties with their own mental health, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, or life transitions. I also help with guidance for co-parenting strategies.
