Children

I believe the biggest gift we can give to a child is presence. Through providing children with a safe space in which they truly feel seen and heard, we can hold their hand as they learn useful coping tools which will empower change for the child, as well as for the whole family. Child therapy supports children in addressing emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges.

Using age-appropriate techniques, including play, art, and conversation, child therapy provides a safe and supportive space where children can express themselves, build resilience, and develop skills to navigate life’s challenges. These methods can help children better understand their emotions, foster self-expression, and build coping strategies. Our work will also include collaboration with parents to ensure that your child’s environment supports their growth and healing.

In our work together, I assist children in identifying their strengths while tapping into the deep resilience that is already within, thus providing them with helpful tools that will last a lifetime. By addressing challenges early, child therapy equips children with the tools they need to thrive in their relationships, academics, and overall mental and emotional well-being. It empowers them to understand their emotions, develop confidence, and build a sense of security in themselves and the world around them. If your child is struggling, therapy can be a meaningful step toward their growth and happiness.
