Supporting Children, Youth, and Families through Play and Art Therapy

Children and youth often experience strong emotions such as anxiety, sadness, anger, and fear, which can be the roots of behavioral challenges, self- and emotion dysregulation, and other adjustment issues. These issues can significantly impact their quality of life. Through play and art therapy, I facilitate and witness the unfolding of children's lived experiences, helping them explore and express their thoughts, emotions, and memories that may not be easily expressed using words.

How I Help

Play and Art Therapy for Children

By interacting with their personal symbols in play or art, children can gain self-acceptance, which serves as a bridge to healing their inner pain and trauma. This process allows them to navigate and understand their emotions in a safe and supportive environment.

Parental Support and Guidance

Parents and caregivers often face various challenges across their child's development. I provide developmental and relational support, guiding parents in using age-appropriate communication strategies with their children. This empowers parents to be champions of change in their children's healing and growth, while also reducing their own distress.

Key Benefits

• Emotional Expression: Helps children express complex emotions.
