I am a parent, but am also a Child Therapist. I wanted to reach out and offer my services to your students as I currently have openings for TelePlayTherapy. I am usually a home-based therapist, and am usually fully booked, but due to changes caused by COVID, I now have openings, and - depending upon interest - may be starting a social-emotional group for kiddos struggling with anxiety during this time.. I primarily work with children from birth (through the parent) through age 12. I accept most insurances. You can find out more about Root to Rise Early Childhood, Maternal, and Family Therapy here:
