My approach is thoughtful, relational, and tailored to the unique needs of each child and family. If you’re ready to get started, I’d love to connect. https://www.coloradokidscounseling.com/terms-of-use daily 0.75 2026-03-30 https://www.coloradokidscounseling.com/privacy-policy daily 0.75 2026-03-30 https://www.coloradokidscounseling.com/404-error daily 0.75 2026-03-30 https://www.coloradokidscounseling.com/contact-1 daily 0.75 2026-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/feb3c00c-9418-46d2-9ca5-3b3ac6dedbc2/reverence.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/f3dcefac-6b56-4f80-be43-9a353a7c6a77/imgg-demo-Aq8H491F.png https://www.coloradokidscounseling.com/services daily 0.75 2026-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/1777430030666-EM1DDC1ZR48X8HTKBV3Q/unsplash-image-ry_sD0P1ZL0.jpg Parent Partnership - You Know Your Child Best I believe parents play the most important role in shaping their children’s hearts, minds, and character. You know your child in a way no one else does, and your influence carries the greatest weight in their growth and healing. My role is not to replace that, but to come alongside you—offering support, insight, and practical tools as you navigate challenges and help your child thrive. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/1777430397682-7GOHHBSTQZ22P74Y6AIS/unsplash-image-M-eA-JzCWUY.jpg Parent Partnership - Support Beyond the Therapy Room Because of this, parent involvement is an essential part of the work I do. Therapy is most effective when it extends beyond the therapy room and into everyday life. I regularly connect with parents to share what I’m seeing, offer guidance, and collaborate on ways to support your child at home. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/1777430449702-WGR44E526GWV2PRFC79R/unsplash-image-zgq9OXecyqI.jpg Parent Partnership - Guidance for the Journey My goal is for you to feel encouraged and equipped—not dependent on therapy, but more confident in how to support your child long after our work together ends. When parents and therapist work as a team, children experience greater consistency, deeper connection, and more lasting change. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/1777430711164-7GIHX03QOVR7ABEKSRCF/unsplash-image-jpoKVPuNCU4.jpg Parent Partnership - Filial Therapy: Coaching You to Connect For some families, I offer filial therapy—a short-term, parent-focused approach where I teach you how to use therapeutic play skills with your child at home. In these sessions, I guide you step-by-step in creating a special, structured playtime that strengthens your connection and helps your child feel seen, safe, and understood. You’ll learn simple but powerful skills like reflecting your child’s feelings, following their lead, and setting gentle, consistent limits. We’ll meet regularly to practice, troubleshoot, and build your confidence, so you feel comfortable using these tools on your own. Many parents find this approach not only helps with current challenges, but also deepens their relationship with their child in lasting ways. https://www.coloradokidscounseling.com/the-process daily 0.75 2026-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/1775007168146-SUP2JNO71YAO66MYZ7YQ/unsplash-image-VK-podfv2DU.jpg The Process - Step 1: Free Consultation We begin with a complimentary 20-minute phone call. This is a chance for you to briefly share what’s going on, ask questions, and get a feel for how I work. It’s also a space to see whether we feel like the right fit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/db377e02-b342-4e5f-a07c-703a0b2f3b18/unsplash-image-VtKoSy_XzNU.jpg The Process - Step 2: Parent Intake If we decide to move forward, we start with a parent intake session. This helps me understand your child more fully—their background, temperament, strengths, and current struggles. Whenever possible, I encourage both parents to attend. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/1775007660379-NEHE7ENAM5CG75XZ4VZW/unsplash-image-FXosterJbHc.jpg The Process - Step 3: Therapy Begins From there, I begin meeting with your child or teen. With younger children, sessions are play-based and developmentally attuned. With teens, the work is more conversational, relational, and skill-focused. In either case, the goal is the same: helping your child feel more regulated, understood, and equipped. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/ac0f9f0c-6e17-429c-8419-5516b861cf4e/unsplash-image-giijfNulwxk.jpg The Process - Step 4: Parent Collaboration Parents are an important part of the process. With children, I typically meet with parents every 4–6 sessions to share progress, offer guidance, and keep you involved. With teens, parent check-ins are more flexible, but we usually connect every few months. Family sessions can also be woven in when helpful. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/1775010091670-OO37A0PZ4RA04WWIE6G4/unsplash-image-UdA6S781cgI.jpg The Process - Step 5: Closing the Work As symptoms begin to subside and your child is doing well, we’ll prepare for a thoughtful close to therapy. This usually includes a final parent session to reflect on growth, name what’s been helpful, and support a strong transition forward. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/692f1fb14112f840c41cc802/1b05ef14-d040-4460-927c-063b838bf70e/unsplash-image-9QTQFihyles.jpg The Process - A Collaborative Approach Therapy works best when it feels like a partnership. My role is to support your child with care and skill, while also giving you insight and practical tools along the way.
