Child Therapy

At my practice, I specialize in providing compassionate and effective therapy for children and adolescents. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment where children can express themselves, explore their emotions, and develop the skills they need to thrive.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with 12 years of experience working with children and families. With a warm and empathetic approach, I am dedicated to helping children overcome challenges and build resilience.

My Approach

I understand that every child is unique, which is why I tailor my therapy approach to meet the individual needs of each client. My therapeutic methods may include play therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), art therapy, sand tray therapy, PCIT ( Parent -Child Interaction Therapy), EMDR and more. I believe in empowering children to express themselves in ways that feel comfortable and natural to them.

Areas of Expertise

Behavioral issues
Trauma and abuse
Grief and loss/ divorce

I offer a range of  support and tools for children and families on their journey toward healing and growth, including:

Individual therapy sessions for children and adolescents and parental training.

Parent counseling and guidance
Family therapy sessions to improve communication and understanding
School consultations to collaborate with teachers and support staff.

Getting Started

Taking the first step toward therapy can be challenging, but I am here to support you every step of the way. To schedule an appointment or for a brief consultation please contact me. I look forward to partnering with you and your child on the path to wellness.

Therapy For Children and Behavioral Issues

“No Surprises”Act

In January 2022, Congress passed the “No Surprises” Act that obliges health care providers—like me—to furnish clients who self-pay with a “good faith estimate” of the cost they might expect to incur in the calendar year or the number of sessions agreed upon. Your own cost will be the number of visits you schedule multiplied by my fee. How many visits you can expect is variable, difficult to anticipate, and ultimately, up to you. I will provide existing clients with a good faith estimate based on a range of number of sessions in the calendar year. Ps: The faith of the estimate is just an estimate, and you are not obliged to attend all the sessions provided in the estimate. You are allowed to discontinue therapy anytime during the treatment period if you desire. You will not be charged for sessions not attended that are cancelled within the 48 hour of the cancellation policy.
Feel free to discuss this with me and explore more about this act in this website: https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
