Attuned Connections Counseling, LLC
I collaborate with children (ages 2.5 years and older) and adolescents, their caregivers, and young adults to support them in their discovery of understanding, healing, satisfaction, and peace in their lives. I have extensive training in the use of play therapy techniques and family-based interventions focused on strengthening secure attachment and establishing healthy patterns for managing stressors.
