Children’s Therapy

My approach to therapy with children, adolescents, and families is firmly rooted in the principles of child-centered play therapy. I believe the most effective and lasting change occurs when the therapeutic relationship becomes the foundation for growth, where the child’s own experiences drive the healing process. The non-directive, child-centered approach I specialize in empowers children to unlock and express their deepest emotions, fears, desires, and strengths through the powerful medium of play—their natural language. By fostering a secure, compassionate, and accepting environment, I work closely with families to create the necessary space for children to explore, reflect, and grow. My goal is to guide families through these pivotal moments of healing, emphasizing the profound importance of unconditional acceptance, trust, and the belief in the child’s inherent ability to heal and thrive

My primary focus is to foster deep emotional connections and transformative experiences within the playroom that extend beyond therapy and into the home and family dynamics—areas where children most need support. At the core of non-directive play therapy lies the belief that children are inherently capable of healing and discovering their own answers. Play, their natural form of expression, serves as the gateway for this profound process. By providing a nurturing and accepting space, I empower children to explore every aspect of themselves, trusting in their innate ability to navigate through challenges. This child-centered approach enables me to witness remarkable growth, as children, supported by unconditional acceptance, confront and work through complex emotions, emerging with greater self-confidence and emotional resilience. There is nothing more rewarding than watching a child realize they are their own most trusted guide.
