Children.
(Age 5-12)
Young Children. Is your child worried, sad, or easily distracted? Are they having trouble sleeping? Are you tired of managing temper tantrums? I help children with these common problems by attuning to their unique needs, joining with their interests, and teaching new emotional skills through the language of play (e.g., art, games, books). I also meet with caregivers for parenting coaching and to review the skills your child is learning in therapy.
Older Children/Pre-teens. Is your child going through puberty and feeling uncomfortable with their body? Are they experiencing big mood changes? Are they having trouble making friends? I help older children explore their changing emotions, as well as learn practical tools to express themselves, through games, art, dialogue, and self-reflection. I also provide caregivers with the tools and resources they need to navigate difficult conversations that come up during this scary and confusing time.
Adolescents.
(Age 13-18)
Is your teen struggling with sadness, anxiety, or poor self-esteem? Have they been through a traumatic experience? Is every conversation you have with them turning into an argument? I help teens navigate difficult emotions and recognize the inner strengths they possess to meet life’s challenges. Many teens also need an outlet to explore who they are with regards to their racial identity, spirituality, gender, and sexual orientation. I make space for teens to talk, draw, or write about any number of these topics in therapy.
Young Adults.
(Age 18-25)
