About

Does parenting ever feel like a game of Whack-A-Mole and just after tackling one concern, a new one quickly pops up? Do you ever wish you could borrow Mary Poppin’s bag of tricks to help you handle it all? I can’t promise magic, but I can support both you and your child as you develop a toolbox of practical skills to address challenging behaviors, improve emotional regulation, cope with anxiety, navigate identity development, and manage other life stressors. So how can we accomplish this? Well, when we rely solely on “talk therapy” with young people, it can be challenging to find success.

Because of this, I often utilize sandtray or play therapy techniques to help children, teens, and young adults express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences, providing me with much greater insight and information. In the words of Carl Jung, “Often the hands will solve a mystery that the intellect has struggled with in vain.

As a clinician, my goal is to help clients gain a greater sense of empowerment, confidence, and resilience, which are skills that will ultimately serve them well throughout the course of their lives.
