Children & Adolescents

 Finding a therapist for children must be handled with care. Children communicate very differently than teenagers. Much of my work with children is through art and play therapy.  Understanding how to parent children effectively use positive reinforcement, and address behavioral problems is part of working with children and helping them develop a set of tools that set them up for success. Today, with ADHD being over diagnosed in children, the lines of underlying factors are blurring.  I can help eliminate behavioral problems by helping families gain the knowledge and skills to help their children. Let your child be a child and find balance once and for all.

In today's society, young people are maturing at an accelerated pace. The constant and perplexing messages they receive from the media and society can be overwhelming. It is rare for a teenager to willingly seek therapy, as they lack the necessary skills to express their complex emotions. My expertise lies in earning the trust and respect of adolescents, creating a safe space for them to open up. It is crucial to help teenagers recognize their true value and worth, enabling them to navigate the challenges of the modern world and develop a strong sense of self. Building self-awareness and self-esteem is paramount in my work.  I assist teenagers in bridging the gap between their needs and effective communication. Traditional talk therapy may not always be effective with this age group, which is why I incorporate art therapy as a valuable tool to engage and connect with your youth.
