I see children ages 4-12 struggling with a range of emotional and behavioral concerns that are most typically described as "big feelings" or "big reactions." I will work with your child to better understand and express their emotions, develop coping skills, improve emotion regulation, and increase positive behaviors and self-esteem. I draw on a range of tested techniques including play, art, bibliotherapy, skill-building, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), movement, relaxation, and mindfulness.

In my approach to supporting young children, I emphasize an integrative and adaptable approach. Research underscores the significance of parental involvement in enhancing the effectiveness of child therapy, and it often serves as a pivotal factor for success. I prefer to work outside of a narrow framework, recognizing the fluid nature of each unique situation. Throughout the treatment process, alongside individual sessions with your child, I may incorporate dedicated sessions for parents and even family-oriented interventions, tailored to the specific needs that may arise. This holistic approach aims to foster a comprehensive and supportive environment for your child's well-being.
