Children today more than ever before need to feel safe,loved
and important. A childs self worth is paramount to his
happiness. It is a priority to me to facilitate the development
of a childs healthy sense of self, self-worth, and self-esteem.
It is only when a child feels safe enough that he will muster
the courage to attempt a task that he has never attempted
before.
As
a therapist,the children who work with me know they are safe
to venture outside of their respective comfort zones.
