Waitlist for new clients
In the space we create together, I hope to sit along side you/your child to collaborate on ways to reach the goals you have for yourself.
At times, life is filled with authenticity, laughter, and fun. Other times it can be demanding, draining, and leave us feeling unsure. The highs and lows of life are normal and we all feel it, but at times we need extra support and space, and that is okay! As your therapist, my main goal is to provide an open, safe and accepting place for all to navigate life. Through deconstructing unhelpful beliefs, utilizing art and play to aid in emotional expression and increasing self-compassion, my hope is to find unique ways to support your or you child's journey to better mental health.

Life is challenging, and being a child or adolescent seems to intensify and add to the challenges of life.
Hi name is Justien, she/her/hers, and I am the owner of Soothing Sands Therapy, LLC. I specialize in working with children, adolescents and young adults. I am fascinated with how the brain works finding ways to make the growth process go as smoothly as possible. It is because of my interest in brain development that I have found alternative ways to do therapy other than talking. When we think about adolescent and adolescent years, we just want to survive it but my passion is to help others not only get through it, but thrive through those years. I am also available to provide supervision to individuals in candidacy.

I find immense joy and meaning in my work with children, adolescents, and families.
Families are facing so many challenges, and taking that step to seek outside help is vital and brave. Before looking for a therapist, you've likely striven to help your child or teen in other ways at home and school. My primary role as your child's therapist is to collaborate with you and your child/teen to clearly identify strengths and struggles, and come up with a game plan to build connection, confidence, and stability. I utilize cognitive-behavioral, DBT, and trauma-focused approaches that are proven to reduce depression, anxiety, emotion dysregulation, and interpersonal conflicts.

We offer high quality, evidence-based therapy to children, teens, adults, couples, & families.
We all need help sometimes. This help often comes from family members and friends, but sometimes we need a different type of help - help that comes from someone who prioritizes your growth, values, and perspective. Someone who can listen without judging, see your strengths and help you build upon them. Someone who can help you write your own story and teach you strategies to deal with troubling thoughts or feelings. Someone who can help you through a stressful or traumatic situation. Someone who gets to know you, and then challenges some of the ways you've been doing things.
