Play Therapy Video
I offer a variety of therapeutic modalities including play therapy techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Behavioral Therapy, trauma work, and expressive art. There is not a “one size fits all” therapeutic model, so I will utilize different modalities based on the client and their needs.
For clients who would benefit from play therapy, I have created a play room (from a play therapy approach) to encourage children to heal and work out issues through play. As adults we “talk” about our problems, however “play” is the natural way that children work out problems. I always “meet the client where they are” and allow them to express their feelings in a variety of ways.
I work with a variety of problems/issues including but not limited to:
Depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, oppositional defiance, bipolar, family changes/conflict, anger, behavioral issues, self-esteem, understanding and expressing emotions, building connections with others.
I offer in person and telehealth sessions and accept several insurances including Aetna and Aetna Better Health, Alliance, Cigna, Health Plan, Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, PEAK, UMWA, United Health Care and UMR, WV Medicaid, and WV CHIP. I also accept self-pay and offer a sliding scale fee.
