As a Registered Play Therapist, I use a variety of tools during play therapy sessions. I subscribe to a hybrid approach using client-centered and directive therapy. Some of the tools include: sand tray play, expressive art activities, bibliotherapy, the use of puppets, and a variety of mindfulness activities. Children are working through issues such as anger, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, loss, grief, ADHD, and a variety of behavioral issues. The child can express their inner world through their natural language of play.

Fee: 50-Minute Session/$175

As a Certified Interpersonal Neurobiology Clinician (C-IPNB), I use a framework to help clients of all ages to explore how relationships and experiences shape the brain, mind, and overall well-being.

Do you ever wish your child had been born with a manual? I certainly did when my two daughters were born! I walk alongside parents to help guide them through some of the hardest years of raising children. In five sessions, we explore a variety of topics such as love languages, attachment styles, boundaries, discipline, brain development, diet, and nutrition. Parents walk away with individually tailored tools to put into place. Click here for more details.

Wellness Check-In

I often receive requests from parents wanting to schedule a “check-in” for their child.

Some of the topics to be discussed:

• Friends and family relationships

• School (grades, activities, teachers)

• Tools that help to regulate big feelings

• Sleep, nutrition, and hygiene

As a former K–12 School Counselor, I see my role as part of the team that comes alongside a family and supports my client. I can participate in an S-Team meeting, 504 meeting, IEP meeting, and/or parent-teacher conference. Whether I am there simply to provide support or to help develop a behavior plan, I believe it truly takes a village to support children.

Fee varies depending on travel time.
