“Play is the highest expression of human development in childhood, for it alone is the free expression of what is in a child’s soul."
– Friedrich Froebel (founder of the concept of kindergarten)
As an experienced School Counselor, I have worked with children and adolescents in various settings (classroom, individually, small groups, unstructured periods such as lunch or recess). With this experience, I am able to fully view the world through your child's eyes, instilling hope and trust in the therapeutic relationship.
As a trained play therapist I am knowledgeable about the developmental needs of children. I strive to create a safe and therapeutic environment to help children express themselves, cope with whatever troubles them, and demonstrate adaptive behaviors. Through the therapeutic relationship I establish, children are able to enhance their self- esteem, exercise self-control and become more resourceful in confronting problems.
I have expertise in working with children ages 4-12 years old in the following areas:
-ADD/ADHD
-Emotion Management
-Grief and Loss
-Anxiety
- Trauma
-Divorce and Separation
- Social Skills (Friendship, Appropriate Play, etc.)
-Behavior Concerns
-School Challenges/Difficulties
-Emotion Regulation
-Expression of Emotions
