I'm Sarah and I specialize in working with neurodivergent toddlers, children and teens. My clients are often described as "quirky" and have interests that don't align with their peers. This makes it difficult for them to connect and make friends, even though they really want to. My clients also face challenges like communicating with their parents, tantrums/emotional outbursts, and emotional regulation. I help clients by giving them a space to talk, showing acceptance, and teaching them coping and social skills they can use to make the friendships they've always wanted.
I work with clients and their families to determine what they want to gain from therapy. Therapy is an investment and I want to make sure session time is used effectively. My clients generally want to learn how to communicate and regulate their emotions, and learn social skills they can use to make friends and thrive in social environments.
If your child is struggling to make social connections, having tantrums or emotional outbursts it may be time to get them some extra help. My goal is to give your child the tools they need to express themselves, make and maintain friendships, feel more confident in social situations, and to better communicate with their parents and family.

I specialize in working with neurodivergent kids and teens that have issues making friends and with emotional regulation. I work with parents and the child to determine therapy goals. In sessions I use fun and engaging activities to create relationships with my clients, then begin to explore their concerns. Over time your child will develop the skills they need to feel more confident.
