An Integrative Playful Approach

By integrating the powers of play, music, movement, relational neuroscience, nutrition, and technology, children can thrive.

Through the application of the Autplay therapy framework, I get to know each child, their play preferences, and strengths, to create a treatment strategy unique to their needs. I will work with you and your child to overcome challenges of anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, sensory integration, social navigation & relationships, and trauma.

Biofeedback

Biofeedback, which is a noninvasive mind-body technique that aims to help clients gain voluntary control over certain body functions that are typically involuntary (such as heart rate, muscle contraction or brainwaves). Biofeedback uses electronic instruments to convey to the client certain physiological processes happening in their body that they are typically not aware of.

Biofeedback has been shown to improve symptoms of Anxiety, depression, Attention issues, and mood regulation.

Therapeutic Nutrition

Neurodivergant children frequently develop nutritional deficiencies due to genetics, food sensitivites, picky eating, digestive issues, and other environmental factors. Using a thurough assessment, we can uncover your child's needs and develop a custom therapetuic diet that matches their needs.

Advocacy Assistance

Parents often find themselves unprepared when advocating for their Neurodivergant child for educational support. Knowing what questions to ask, raising concerns, asking for help.

Some parents find it difficult or uncomfortable to talk with educators. When things aren’t going well at school, you are a voice for your child until they learn to have their own. You know your child’s strengths, challenges, and interests. I have been through the process and can help you learn to advocate for your child so they can get the supports they need to thrive.

Parent & Family Support

Being a mother and now grandmother of some awesome Neurodivergant people myself, I know the struggles. Child LIght Therapies believes the family are an active part of the therapuetic team. Parental and family support is available such as coaching, parenting tips, and my Facebook page where we can share, encourage, and hold a space with each other.
