I provide compassionate services to support the mental health and well-being of infants, young children, and their families. At The Play Therapy Center, I understand the critical importance of early relationships and the impact they have on a child's development.

 

Benefits of Infant/Family Mental Health Services 

​

• ​Nurturing Healthy Relationships: My services focus on nurturing healthy and secure relationships between infants, young children, and their caregivers. By promoting positive attachment and emotional connections, I help lay the foundation for healthy social and emotional development.

• Early Intervention: My early intervention approach aims to identify and address mental health concerns in infancy and early childhood. By detecting and addressing challenges at an early stage, I can help prevent or minimize long-term difficulties and support optimal development.

• Holistic Approach: I recognize that each family is unique, and my services are tailored to meet the specific needs of the child and their family. 

• Play-Based Interventions: Play is a natural and powerful medium for young children to express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. My play-based interventions create a safe and nurturing environment for exploration, healing, and growth.

• Collaboration and Support: I believe in the importance of collaboration and actively involve parents and caregivers in the therapeutic process. I provide guidance, support, and resources to help parents understand and respond to their child's emotional needs effectively.
