Therapy for Children
Creating a supportive environment for your children as they learn to effectively communicate emotions and overcome obstacles
Children express grief, loss, and trauma in different and complex ways. While one child may become despondent and quiet, another may begin acting out in ways they never have before. Regardless of the symptoms, I work with every child and their parents or guardians to heal the root of the grief, loss, or trauma, no matter what the cause.
Children are incredibly resilient and strong, but like everyone, they need the support and tools to excel. In my practice, I emphasize transparency and seek to involve parents as much as possible. The path to making each child feel whole again is unique to them, and ensuring that they have a strong, supportive network walking side by side with them is critical to their success.
By using visualization and grounding techniques, I help each child peel back the layers and roadblocks that their mind has put up to shield them from their trauma. When these barriers are gently discarded, the mind can begin the process of healing. This process propels your child forward so that they can go back to being a carefree, happy kid.
