PLAY THERAPY FOR CHILDREN IN HOLLY SPRINGS, NC
A safe place for your child to
play, connect, heal, and grow.
You are a concerned parent who desperately wants to help your child.
It is difficult to see your child struggle and feel at a loss with knowing how to best support them…
You may often find yourself wishing the hard behaviors would just stop, or that they will grow out of it…
As a parent you just want your child to thrive and be successful in life, but you’re worried because your child isn’t yet able to manage their feelings on their own, as they are easily angered, consumed with worry, or stuck in a meltdown when things unexpectedly change or don’t work out their way…
You have tried different advice and strategies, but haven’t quite found an approach that feels aligned for you as a parent and is received well by your child.
Your child’s frequent “big feelings” and “big behaviors”, along with the overwhelm and frustration you experience while trying to help your child, feels like a heavy strain on your parent-child relationship.
Life doesn’t have to stay this way.
Hi, I’m Andrea.
I’m so glad you’re here.
I aim to build safe and nurturing relationships to help you and your child through tough times by communicating empathy, acceptance, and understanding. In the playroom, I meet children and their grown-ups where they are each time they walk in!
I specialize in working with young children and parents. Parents are often searching for a therapist who will partner with them so they can better understand their child and their “big feelings” or “big behaviors”. Our partnership can help you and your child feel more connection and delight with one another. My clients walk away from therapy better able to express their emotions, cope with disappointment and hardships, and feel better understood by their parents.

Click the button below to schedule a free 15-minute consultation with me. Tell me a little about what is bringing you to seek therapy and I’ll share about my services and how I can help.
After our initial parent session, you will bring your child in to join me each week in the playroom for their session. In session, they get to decide what they will play, draw, write, and talk about. Together, we’ll develop the tools you need to best support your child at home when they are having a hard time.
Your child will be better able to understand and communicate their feelings and tolerate change and disappointment. You will expand your parenting toolbox and your confidence will grow as you feel better equipped to support your child and know that you can get through the next meltdown or power struggle without feeling defeated.
