Therapy for Children & Teens
I use play-based activities to support a child in expressing themselves and to create greater self-awareness to understand how to ask for what they need to support the process for healthy communication and self-regulation. I engage with deep empathy, playfulness, humor, and a narration that allows the child to reflect and find their voice.
The therapeutic process for children includes the development of good communication with parents to ensure the child receives the support that they need at home. Parent Meetings are often scheduled to give updates on the client’s behaviors at home or at school. During this time, I can support in referrals and psychoeducation on approaches to parenting and communication strategies. I will help you find tools to create a deeper connection to your child.
