Relational consultation for play therapists — a steady place to slow down, notice, and grow into the clinician you're becoming.

"The only way to make sense of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance."

— Fritz Perls

Philosophy

Consultation as relationship.

Consultation is not about creating therapists who practice exactly like me. It is about helping you discover your own clinical voice while strengthening conceptualization, confidence, creativity, and ethical practice.

My approach is deeply relational and grounded in Gestalt principles while welcoming clinicians from many theoretical orientations. I partner with you — rather than positioning myself as the expert with all the answers.
