As a Registered Play Therapist™, I focus on providing young children and their parents with support in ways that make sense to them.
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with 7 years of experience. I help children use their natural language of play to build emotional regulation, positive self-regard, and social skills. I work with children who struggle with anxiety, anger, ADHD, peer relationship difficulties, defiance, and academic challenges. My goal is to support parents in strengthening confidence while helping children grow and limiting behaviors that get in the way.
I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a concentration in play therapy from the University of North Carolina-Charlotte. Through child-centered play therapy, I provide a strengths-based approach that fosters the growth of the whole child. I also offer child-parent relationship training to support families.
I know children experience the world in ways that feel mysterious to adults, and I often say parenting is the hardest job. My methods are evidence-based and proven to achieve positive results. When your child’s behaviors feel overwhelming, I’m here to help you find support and strategies that work for your family.
