Hello, I'm Erin, a licensed marriage and family therapist. I understand the stress and anxiety parenting can cause, especially when balancing life's demands becomes overwhelming. If your child's behaviors feel out of control or they have received a recent diagnosis, I can help. For the past 12 years, I have empowered hundreds of families struggling with parenting challenges - from daily pressures to major diagnoses like Autism. I recognize the immense grief, anxiety, depression, and isolation a diagnosis or a child with behavioral challenges can bring and how it affects the whole family. My strength-based approach aims to equip families with tools and support so you can feel confident and comfortable navigating this difficult time together. Whether I'm working with the whole family, the child, or parent individually, my goal is to help each family member thrive during the challenges they face. I'm here to listen and develop a customized plan to meet your family's needs. Let's connect to discuss how I can support your family

Sandplay
Sand tray therapy, also known as sandplay therapy, is a form of expressive therapy that is widely used in play therapy, especially with children. It involves the use of a sand tray, which is a shallow rectangular box filled with sand, along with a collection of miniature figures and objects that represent various elements of life and the world. ● The sand tray provides a safe and contained space for children to create scenes, tell stories, and express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences through symbolic play. The therapist facilitates the process by observing the child's actions and interactions with the sand and objects, without imposing interpretations or directing.
Play Therapy
Play therapy is a form of psychotherapy primarily used with children to help them express their feelings, thoughts, and experiences through play. It is based on the idea that play is the natural language of children, and it provides a safe and comfortable environment for them to communicate their innermost concerns and emotions. In play therapy, the therapist creates a non-directive atmosphere where children are free to play with various toys, games, art materials, and other play objects. The therapist observes the child's play, interactions, and behaviors, and uses this information to gain insight into the child's emotional state, concerns, and developmental needs.
