Children communicate through behavior, play, and movement long before they can fully express what they’re feeling in words.

My therapy approach honors each child’s developmental stage and unique emotional world. Through relationship-based and mind-body practices, including play, art, sand tray, dance, and movement, I support children and teens in building emotional resilience, processing big feelings, and reconnecting with their sense of self.

A Gentle, Creative Space

Therapy for children

Each session gently meets your child right where they are, emotionally, developmentally, and relationally. Growth might appear in a softer tone, a spark of imagination, or the courage to name a big feeling in a new way. Over time, small moments build into meaningful change. My goal is to help your child feel grounded, empowered, and fully themselves.

what to expect

working together

Children need more than just a weekly session, they need a circle of support. I regularly partner with caregivers to offer insights, tools, and relational support. Together, we create consistency and safety that helps your child feel seen and supported.
Wondering if therapy might be the right support for your child? It’s okay to have questions. That’s why I offer a free, 30-minute consultation to connect and explore how I can best support your family. This session is a relaxed, no-pressure chance to share your concerns, ask questions, and see if we’re a good fit. When you’re ready, I’m here to walk with you on this journey.

My approach is always attuned to your child’s emotional and sensory needs. I honor where they are developmentally, supporting growth, regulation, and resilience at every stage.

Attachment-Focused Support

Drawing, storytelling, puppetry, and other expressive tools allow children to project and process emotions in ways that feel creative, nonverbal, and safe.

With miniature figures and symbolic scenes in the sand, children externalize their inner worlds, safely exploring big feelings and experiences through metaphor and story.

A purposeful, child-led approach that uses imagination and play to help children express feelings, build safety, and make sense of their world in a way that feels natural and healing.

Play therapy

Gentle, attuned touch to support early bonding, strengthen attachment, and help infants and caregivers co-regulate together.

Infant Massage

Every child expresses themselves in their own way, through story, sensation, movement, and imagination. I draw from a range of relationship-based, creative, and brain-body practices to support infants through early adolescents in feeling safe, understood, and emotionally resilient. Each approach gently honors the unique gem within your child, nurturing their feelings, voice, and inner world.
