When doing therapy with young children, my primary goal is to first make them feel safe and comfortable. I use Play Therapy and Emotion Focused techniques to address concerns and help them regulate their emotions to be able to navigate significant changes in their lives. I find that it is helpful to collaborate with parents for a smoother transition of therapy tools into their lives at home. These younger years can greatly impact their adulthood, which makes therapy a useful tool in building long-term resilience. Call today to see if your child’s needs and my expertise are a good fit.

Children most often do not have the words to convey in therapy, nor the developmental capacity to expand on thoughts through talk therapy. Therefore, it is crucial to work with children by meeting them where they are at in their development, as well as within their strengths and interests. It is essential that therapist provide children with healing modalities such as Play Therapy, Expressive Art Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy and other child-centered therapies, allowing the child to express their thoughts and emotions in a non-intrusive way.

My approach when working with children under 12 years old is to ensure that they are provided with a positive and safe experience of therapy. I prefer to tailor therapy to their developmental stage by creating a fun environment that may involve play, art, and activities during sessions. Discussions about their interests, skills, and special talents and abilities are at the forefront of our therapeutic conversations to help build confidence and feelings of positivity. My background in relational therapy may invite parents or siblings into sessions as well. Please contact me for a free consultation if you are interested in determining if I would be a good fit for your child/children.
