Integrating my years as a school social worker providing and training others in play therapy, with my experience supporting families in conscious parenting, I am pleased to offer holistic, whole-child support in the form of family mentoring.

For younger children (2-10yo)

We meet in a natural home environment and garden, or safe wilderness setting where your child can be free to be themselves. Through play, I observe and provide support to your child while getting to know him or her better. Throughout our time together, we explore the challenges you are experiencing as a family with sensitivity to the child’s presence. Then we meet for an in depth conversation with all caregivers involved, when possible.

For older children/youth (10 and up)

We offer the child/youth options for how they prefer to engage in our ‘problem solving’ conversations, including games, art, and gardening. Children are invited to speak alone or with their parents as they are most comfortable. Emotional intelligence and effective parent-child communication is explored, taught and supported throughout.

From an earth based, holistic spiritual counseling perspective, we thoroughly examine how everyone’s needs are best met and what steps, healing, resources, mindfulness, nature connection and parenting guidance would best support your family.

This is a very gentle, body, mind, spirit approach to bringing you and your child back into balance, resilience and wellness.  Children who participate, primarily identify it as FUN!
