Hi, I’m Andrea.
I love helping children, adolescents, and families to work through life’s challenges in order to calm the chaos of such BIG feelings. My therapeutic style is collaborative, empathic, and strength-based. I am here to listen and support you and your child.
I offer child therapy. I can meet you in person or online.
I use conversation, humor, and a play-based approach to build trusting therapeutic relationships with the kids I see. We will work together to discover new ways of looking at the problems to be solved. We will focus on developing the skills you need to cope with adversity and strengthening the relationships you have with yourself and others. I will walk with you as you cultivate the resilience and courage to be your authentic and true self.
As a parent myself, I understand that parenting is hard. Sometimes we need help figuring it all out. I will meet where you are, understand the obstacles you face, and empower you to find your voice. If you need someone to advocate for your child’s needs and collaborate with educators, physicians, or other providers in your child’s life, I will be in your child’s corner every step of the way.
Let’s begin your journey to healing together.
