“We don’t know what else to do or how to help.” Parents often feel at a loss when they have tried everything to help their child, but are still seeing their child struggle. Parents want their children to be growing, learning, and experiencing positive relationships. These things can get thrown off course when kids experience bullying, family stress, violence, neglect, or other scary life changes. Therapy is a space for kids to talk, play, draw, or move to process the hard things they have experienced. I work with children/adolescents who need a safe space to heal. It is important to me to respect families’ values, culture, and identity during treatment. The main evidence-based therapies I use are cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, child-parent psychotherapy, and EMDR. I weave play, art, and movement throughout for engagement and expression.
