EVERY CHILD IS UNIQUE AND HAS SOMETHING SPECIAL TO SHARE WITH THE WORLD
Children and Adolescents
Approach
Rather than coming from the mindset that your child needs to be fixed or changed, our work together uses a thoughtful approach that focuses on helping your child feel empowered to express their true self and realize their unique potential.
If your child is just beginning their educational journey, Integrative Educational Therapy will help your child establish a foundation grounded in their overall well-being. If you have already tried several options, and feel stuck, or you know that your child has many gifts that often go unseen or developed, struggles with limiting beliefs, or is exhibiting anxiety or stress functioning in a culture of high-achievement, my passion is to help you get to the root cause: to help your child or adolescent restore balance, confidence, and self-worth, and ultimately, bring forth their many gifts, passions, and intrinsic motivation to live the life they are here to express.
How to Begin
INTAKE SESSION
Upon receipt of intake forms, we begin with a 55-minute parent consultation to discuss your child’s needs, address questions and concerns, gather input, and provide an understanding of my practice. and determine how to proceed in our work together
PERSONALIZED PLANS
After our intake meeting, we schedule another session to go over your personalized plan. Every plan is customized for each child and family, and is designed to help your child set a foundation for lifelong well-being or restore balance and rebuild your child’s sense of self.
SESSIONS
If we choose to continue a more comprehensive plan in our work together, we will proceed with weekly or bi-weekly private sessions. Each online session is 60 minutes in length. Ongoing parent support is an important factor to set a foundation that supports you, your child, and your family.
one-to-one private sessionsPlease note: There is currently a wait list for ongoing Integrative Educational Therapy services; however, private sessions are available.

Connection
Every session is unique and designed for the specific needs of your child. We begin our time together building connection in an environment in which your child feels safe to be themselves — the precursor to learning, motivation, and inspiration.
-
Individualized Plans
To truly help your child express the life they are here to live, we begin with a LifeMap to understand the gifts your child is here to share, their unique life path, processing style, and areas of growth. We combine this with any outside testing and school reports to help support them in daily environments.
-
Educational Support
Once I have an understanding of your child’s unique blueprint, my goal is to provide them with an education that helps them express their true nature while also providing support in navigating environments that may not see or understand their full capacity.
-
Abilities
Many children and adolescents today have expansive abilities that are not yet addressed in our traditional education. With this understanding, we build a bridge to the hidden capabilities often masked as learning disabilities, and utilize pioneering teachings to support their full expression.
-
Inner Wisdom
Together, your child and I go beyond an education for the mind, to access their heart and inner wisdom. They learn tools to connect to their inner guidance while addressing the gifts and supports needed for heightened sensitivities.
-
Fulfillment
When education is used to support your child’s natural expression, the result is a genuine sense of well-being and wholeness rather than a life based on achievement for the sake of external approval. From this state, motivation, inspiration, and a sense of joy, authenticity, and personal fulillment arise naturally.
