Counseling

Child Counseling

Play is the natural way that children communicate. Children play as a way of working out their problems. As a professional, I utilize play activities to better understand what their inner world feels like to them. During our sessions, I can support the child to develop new coping skills. This approach is ideal for children ages 3-13. Parents are always asking me, "What can I do to help my child" and I will meet with parents to discuss changes they can make at home to support the child's growth.


 Counseling is great for children who struggle with:


: Behavioral issues - tantrums, defiance, arguing and acting out. 

: Emotional Management (Anger, Anxiety, Stress or Depression).

: School Behaviors - behaving in class, school performance, peer interactions.

: Social Issues - getting along with other children and family members.

: Sibling Rivalries.

: Trauma related issues.

: Sleep disorders.

: Grief and Loss.
