I have utilized play therapy techniques with
children
in clinical/ school environments.
I consider it my privilege to join with others as they share their stories of who they are, the challenges and joys of where they have been and assisting them as they discover what lies ahead in their life's journey. Anyone who has a curiosity about who they are, how life events and circ*mstances affect them, have a willingness to change with a hope of where they want to be in life... is welcome.
