My goal is to create a supportive space where a client feels confident to try a new strategy to use to regulate their emotions, further develop positive self-talk, and improve communication skills. The parent is an integral part of therapy and skills training when my client is a child.

Helping a client work through struggles might be achieved through role play, art expression, improvisational play, DBT skills, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral activities, or talk therapy.
We can use our time together to talk through problems in a safe, judgment free space. We will work together to shape the steps toward a self-selected goal.
