Play Therapy for Children

 

Hope & Healing for Children & Parents Using the Power of Play Therapy

Thank you stopping by to learn more about how I can help your child. If you are visiting this page and considering the need for child play therapy, I honor your courage and commitment to find the best help and support your child deserves!  As a parent myself, I know that finding quality care for your child is high-priority! 

You want to see your child’s eyes light up in delight trying new things and experiencing life in positive waysNot giving up easily or avoiding challenging tasks. Meanwhile, your heart is heavy as you hear your child talk so negatively about themselves, others, and/or the world.

You want to see your child to have meaningful & healthy relationships and demonstrate flexibility and cooperation with you, family members, and friends – Without the temper tantrums or your child flipping his or her lid in anger and rage that transpires into him or her having a negative attitude or being overly difficult for the rest of the day.

You want to repair and/or strengthen you and your child’s relationship, emotional connection, and bond – Without the parent/child conflict and power struggles happening now because the emotional roller coaster of anger, frustration, sadness, and guilt is too heavy to carry any longer – for you, your family, and your child.

You want to know how you can help and support your child, especially when your child is struggling and trying to cope with circumstances outside of your control, whether it’s adjusting to a new school and/or recent move, changes in the family, parent’s separation/divorce, loss of a loved one, and/or having experienced a traumatic event or series of traumatic events in the past. You want to see your child living to their full potential – Not enduring the influx behavior issues, problems managing feelings, withdrawing from others, avoiding certain topics, things, or/or places, having difficulty with sleep, etc. Not only do you want your child to receive help and learn how to support your child’s healing, you want guidance on how you can continue your child’s healing process and help build your child’s resilience to tackle future life challenges……long after therapy ends.

Bottom Line: You want your child to rise above adversities, overcome challenges, and thrive! Help is just a phone call away!
