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.

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.

Psychotherapists offer valuable support to parents with young children, helping navigate the challenges of family life. They provide a safe space to discuss parenting concerns, offer guidance on effective strategies, and assist in managing stress. Psychotherapists also address specific issues like postpartum depression, changing relationship dynamics, and work-life balance, fostering emotional well-being and stronger family bonds.

Growing up can be challenging and sometimes leave youth feeling confused, frustrated, or misunderstood. I strive to make them feel accepted for who they are and feel heard and validated. Promoting a safe and judgment free environment is a priority and necessary for youth to be able to let their guard down and communicate openly. Together we look at areas of life that are challenging for them and identify the factors that are contributing to the difficulties they are experiencing. We then work on managing those areas more effectively by developing positive coping strategies and emotions management skills. I have a passion working with youth and encourage you to book a free consultation.

Children can often exhibit externalizing or internalizing behaviors when they are unable to express themselves or process/cope with their feelings and emotions. Therapy can be a safe space for children to make sense of their feelings through creative and engaging means. Depending on age, working with young children can entail working with parents on how to best support their child in what they are going through and to give parents a space to reflect on the kind of parent they want to be while expressing concerns or personal challenges they may be experiencing.
