I specialize in supporting children, their parents, and their family. Life is not a straight line and often family gets upended without warning and without explanation. Oftentimes in these moments parents find themselves challenged by their role as parent and feel helpless to support their child through a time or experience that they are struggling to understand themselves. You may find your child experiencing loneliness, anger, outbursts, anxiety, sadness, perfectionism, aggression, and dysregulation, and as a parent you are not feeling equipped to support them. This can leave your child feeling alone and confused and you feeling helpless and guilty.
There are two aspects of therapy that need to be taken care of when working with kids. The first is of course the child. I create a safe and trusting relationship and space for your child. A place that they can come every week and unburden themselves, feel understood, and heal their wounds.
The second branch is my partnership with the parents. You are the ultimate landing place for your child and as such you carry the most power to help effect change for them. Together, we will explore how and what might be helpful for your child. In my partnership with you, I also recognize that your plate is already full and so I also create space for you, as a parent, to relieve some of the pressure and guilt that you are experiencing.
