Child Therapists in Detroit, MI
Many of us experience problems in living from time to time, as we manage our intimate relationships, careers, children, financial burdens etc…. Often times, these problems can lead to feeling poorly about oneself or even to feelings of hopelessness or helplessness. Sometimes, these problems reach a magnitude where our level of distress or ability to function is affected. At these times, it can be very helpful to talk to a professional who can provide insight, support and perspective on these difficult issues. Although your issues may seem unmanageable to you now, with the right help, these problems can be overcome.

Whether you are looking for support beyond talk therapy for yourself or for your child, help is close at hand. Life changes, problems from the past, and traumatic experiences can throw us and our kids off balance, getting in the way of growth. It is hard to see and feel the hurt but not know what to do. I offer safe, creative, and caring interventions for children, teens, and adults who are facing difficulties with life's challenges (stress, loss, change, trauma) and the related impact on thought patterns, emotional regulation, problematic behaviors, relationship difficulties, and the ability to communicate & cope effectively.
