Therapist Overview
Children and adolescents are often brought to therapy due to behavioral and emotional disturbances that disrupt day to day living. Although treatment is typically geared towards the child, parent involvement is key to the process of the child’s overall growth and well-being. My focus in therapy is to meet the child’s unique individual needs while strengthening the parent-child relationship. My 5+ years of experience are with children ages 2-18 while extensively working with at-risk youth, trauma, anxiety, depression, developmental delays, ADHD, grief/loss, and adjustment issues. Find me at Blumberg Family Therapy Group. My therapeutic approaches to therapy include: client centered play therapy, sandtray, trauma informed, attachment theory, and strength based. Play therapy is supported through research as a brain based intervention. When we play, we feel safe; when we feel safe we are more receptive to new learning and making connections. My passion is using play therapy to work with children and families. Play therapy is a developmentally appropriate way to help children discover language about their life experiences. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, genuine, and trusting environment for the child to express their feelings and work through their problems.
