Statement of Philosophy

Infants and children grow at an astounding rate involving complex and interconnected systems of body, brain, health, environment, and family relationships.

Each person in the family is important and brings to the mix his/her past experiences, feelings and personality, all of which are to be respected.

Because we all learn and grow best using our strengths, I strive to provide a supportive therapeutic relationship to help each child and each family address their needs and use their strengths to develop, to learn, to love, and to function optimally as individuals and with each other.
