Personal Statement
To better help I have had years of providing safety and confidentiality through collaboration with you and with other teaching professionals in order to be mindful of growth through attachment based modalities; this has been a lifelong love of learning and connecting with human complexity.
Having worked with children’s issues for many years I can be most helpful in consultation with parents regarding building healthy development for you and your child. I can work individually with you or your child or together as a family. This is for children of all ages.
Together we will create trust and safety. Safety and confidentiality are my hallmarks with individuals and families and I strive to provide a strengths based and evidenced based practice.
I am especially attuned to the young years of development in early childhood and how that parallels with adult growth later on. Some of my experience , training, and education includes Circle of Security Assessment and Parenting and Mentalization Based Therapy, Theraplay, and Object Relations. Collaborating with you is my commitment to your walk in life; the connection you make through the mind and heart of your therapist can aid you in your needs and goals.
