Life has many challenging moments, and life is full of them. Children, teens, and adults may struggle with school/work difficulties, social/emotional problems, relationship issues, difficult transitions (college, move, divorce, or loss), or daily stressors or conflicts for which they need support. Though parents do their best to create a conflict and stress-free environment, children will inevitably face obstacles, and adults face a range of stressors and complex emotions that can be difficult to navigate. I aim to empower you with knowledge and strategies to help you with the presenting problem and other challenging situations.

Throughout childhood, children express themselves much better through play than by talking. The process of play therapy creates an environment where children do not have to talk directly about their sadness, anxieties, worries, or problems. Instead, children express themselves symbolically through their play; they communicate their conscious and unconscious feelings and experiences and in doing so, see that difficult feelings and memories become less intense and that they are able to work through and find solutions to their problems.
