Children
"Childhood is the best of all the seasons of life, and the longer it lasts with happy memories, the stronger the emotional stability in adulthood."
-Venugopal Acharya.
Many children enter therapy as a result of struggling with difficult feelings or challenging behaviors, a challenging time in their development, or a big change in their life or environment. My goal is to support these young individuals in having a safe space to play and process what they are experiencing, to help them in feeling better and getting back on track. In addition to working with children directly, I believe it is equally important to work with the grown ups (whether you define yourself as a parent or have a different role/title in your child’s life). I typically will recommend monthly meetings with grown ups in addition to the weekly therapy with your child to provide coaching and insight and ensure we are aligned in your child’s goals (the details of this can be discussed further in our initial consultation meeting). I also have experience with and can offer support and consultation around the IEP process for children who need more support in their school settings.
