GRIT Kids exists to allow parents or caregivers to aid their children in the work of self-awareness—at every developmental stage— to better understand themselves and the world around them. Simple behavioral management fails to develop the internal locus of control that is necessary for developing character and self-discipline. Forming a self-identity and learning to live with purpose is a necessary life skill for children to learn in order to live into their fullest self. GRIT Kids Coaches are trained to help you do the work of raising your child with intention so you can see that little person grow into all they are capable of.

Children are referred by either Parents, School, Department of children and Family Services, Doctors and the court. first I have to find out why the child has been referred to my private practice. Gather the history the fist session. Some children can seat and talk to therapist other I use play therapy to stimulate conversation. In the course of sessions I also use behavioral modification which will match with the behavioral modification at home with the child's parents.

In working with young children, I utilize play therapy and behavioral interventions to address emotional and behavioral issues. My approach involves creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can express their feelings and experiences through play. I collaborate closely with parents and caregivers to develop effective strategies for supporting the child's development and well-being. By focusing on the child's unique needs and strengths, I aim to promote healthy emotional and social growth.
