About

Tiny Humans. Big Feelings. A Safe Space to Grow.

I support young children and their families through play therapy, helping children build emotional regulation, improve behavior, and navigate challenges at home and school. As a Registered Play Therapist (RPT) and School Social Worker, I specialize in working with anxiety, big emotions, social difficulties, and behavioral concerns in early childhood and beyond. I also partner closely with parents, providing practical strategies and support to strengthen connection and create lasting change. Sessions will begin in May 2026. (Currently as an employee of Chicago Public Schools, There are some restrictions in students I am able to serve. Please send a message with the student's school so we can confirm services can be provided. Parents are always welcome to consult!)
