Child Therapy in Redmond, WA

Big feelings need safe spaces

Where children feel seen, safe &supported

Your child is constantly feeling overwhelmed .

You feel your child struggles and doesn’t seem to fit in…..

You want to see your child happy again

School mornings have turned into battles

When you see a call from school, you freeze….

Children experience the world in deep and meaningful ways, even when they don’t have the words to express it…


Their thoughts, emotions, and reactions are shaped by what they see, feel, and go through every day.


When something feels overwhelming or confusing, it often shows up as big emotions, and meltdowns as kids don’t have the words to express what they are feeling inside their body.

HOW CHILD THERAPY HELPS

Child therapy provides a safe, supportive space where your child can begin to express what they’re feeling—often in ways that go beyond words.

Through therapy, your child can:

✅ Better understand and express their emotions

✅ Learn to manage anxiety, frustration, and overwhelm

✅ Build confidence and emotional resilience

✅ Develop healthier ways to cope with challenges

At the same time, you as a parent are supported in understanding what’s happening and how to respond in ways that truly help.

I use play as a modality to observe and gain insights into your child's problems. Young kids communicate through play which is their most natural form of expression. They process difficult emotions and express their feelings more easily in a safe environment when they feel most comfortable doing it. Your child will learn new skills to address their behavioral, social and emotional issues and improve their self confidence.
