Sparkle Mental Health Counseling & Wellness

At my practice, I help children, teens, and families feel understood, connected, and capable again. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist, I use the power of play, attachment, and neuroscience to support emotional healing and growth. I believe that all behavior makes sense, even the big, baffling ones. Through play, connection, and curiosity, I help kids make sense of their emotions, strengthen relationships with their caregivers, and build the skills they need to feel safe, confident, and regulated. Parents are partners in the process. Together, we explore what your child’s nervous system needs, how stress shows up in their body, and practical ways to bring more connection, co-regulation, and confidence into your home. I also work with adults who want support navigating stress, anxiety, parenting, relationships, or their own nervous system patterns. Everyone deserves a space where they feel safe, seen, and supported.
