You may be searching for a therapist because your child is facing challenges that feel overwhelming, whether it’s struggles with emotions, behavior, relationships, or self-esteem. As a parent, you might feel uncertain about how to best support them. I am here to provide a safe and compassionate space for your child to explore their feelings, develop resilience, and discover ways to navigate life’s difficulties.
My approach focuses on building a trusting and respectful relationship with your child, helping them feel heard and understood. I tailor each session to meet their unique needs and draw on evidence-based methods that engage children in creative and meaningful ways, such as Play therapy and Sandtray therapy. Together, we can help your child develop tools to manage big emotions, build self-confidence, and strengthen their relationships with others.
With over 15 years of experience working with children and youth, I specialize in helping kids ages 5+ embrace who they are while empowering them to work through their challenges. My background includes a Bachelor of Child and Youth Care from Douglas College and a Master of Education from the City University of Seattle. I am committed to fostering a safe, playful, and supportive environment where your child can thrive.
