You're here because your child is struggling. Help and healing are available.
If you’ve found your way here, you may be feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, confused, or even heartbroken by your child’s struggles.
Perhaps daily interactions with your child often feel tense or exhausting. Maybe you’re bracing yourself for the next phone call from school or daycare with another concern.
It could be that your child has recently gone through a stressful or traumatic experience, and you’re unsure how to help them feel safe, supported, and understood.
Whatever your situation, we all go through times in life when we need more support, and children are no exception.
The good news is that your child already has a powerful tool to aid their healing and growth: play.
As a play therapist, I’ll help your child use their natural capacity for play to process challenges, build resilience, and reconnect with their authentic self — so life feels easier, lighter, and more fulfilling for both of you.
