Therapist Overview
Imagine…feeling more connected and better able to communicate with your child. Perhaps the daily stresses have been piling up and your family needs support to re-balance. Maybe you are worried about your child and you need an experienced therapist to help problem solve. I have worked for over 20 years with children under stress due to school issues, divorce, family crisis, separation or deployment. I utilize a combination of play therapy, mindfulness and CBT to promote changes in thinking and behavior. Play therapy can especially benefit traumatized children, as it allows them to process the trauma at their own pace. I practice a flexible, client centered approach in my work with children and adults. I emphasize strengths and help build skills to relieve stress and empower change. I am a certified Trauma and Loss Consultant and I am skilled in Trauma-Focused CBT. I have completed training programs in Play Therapy, Poetry Therapy, and EMDR LEVEL I.
