Linda Stancil

We can all learn something new to help us understand our children and ourselves to make our life journey a little smoother and encourage everyone in our family to thrive. I bring over 15 years experience working with children and families in schools, residential, and outpatient settings. I use play therapy to engage children in integrating their world, sand tray work to facilitate the brain’s natural capacity for healing, and incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy to help children understand choices, actions, and consequences. I can provide parents techniques and support for increasing effective communication with their children. My therapy dog Franci aids children in developing empathy, impulse control, and expressing difficult emotions. I encourage parents to be actively involved in their children’s therapy process.
