When Big Feelings Show Up in Small Bodies

Your child may be having meltdowns, showing aggression, feeling anxious when separated, or struggling to adjust to family changes. Maybe ADHD or autism is part of their story, or maybe their big emotions just feel hard to manage at home.

As a parent, you may be left wondering:

• Why is my child reacting this way?

• Am I doing something wrong?

• How do I help them feel safe and calm?

These are heavy thoughts to carry alone, and the truth is you don’t have to!

What Play Therapy Can Offer:

I help children:

• Build skills for regulating big emotions

• Express themselves in safe, healthy ways

• Explore identity and self-understanding

• Adjust to life transitions like divorce or blended families

• Feel empowered in spaces where their voice truly matters

Parents benefit too, by learning how to:

• Understand your child’s behavior through a developmental lens

• Use strategies at home that actually work for your child

• Feel supported, respected, and included in the process

With The Right Support Your Child Can Thrive

I specialize in working with children ages 3–12 who are navigating:

• Big behaviors and emotional dysregulation

• Aggression and anxiety

• ADHD and autism

• Separation anxiety

• Blended family transitions

• Identity exploration in LGBTQIA+ affirming ways

I believe children deserve a place to feel empowered and truly understood. Play therapy can be surprisingly hard work, helping kids not only cope but also grow in lasting ways. I’m trained in and working toward becoming a Registered Play Therapist (RPT). Outside the therapy room, I love puzzles, collage art, and riding my bike.

Parents Are Part of the Journey

I love working with parents and see you as the most important piece of your child’s healing. My approach is collaborative and non-judgmental, giving you insight into your child’s world, tools you can try at home, and the confidence to respond with compassion.

I see you. I care about you. You and your child are safe here.
