My name is Emma and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida as well as a graduate of Rollins College Master's of Arts in Mental Health Counseling program. I have been in the mental health field for nearly six years. Prior to graduate school, I started as a Crisis Counselor with 2-1-1, answering crisis and suicide calls and providing those in need with information and referrals to community resources. Since then, I have worked with adults and children in an inpatient hospital setting, college students in a college counseling clinic, and now teens, adults, and couples in a private practice setting.

“We are never more fully alive, more completely ourselves or more deeply engrossed in anything than when we are playing”. -Charles Schaefer. Play is vital for children to express themselves and learn about their surroundings and general environment. In addition to exploration, it is essential for their development. Allowing the space for them to play freely generates the possibility of understanding their world and their motivation. Instead of the traditional format of communication, we often learn more about a child's thoughts, feelings, motivations, and struggles by watching them play.

To be able to give a child power, motivation, and confidence will set the foundation for a successful life. Often times when dealing with a traumatic situation and learning to deal and cope with it effectively, allows a child (or anyone for that matter) to become the best versions of themselves and learn to move forward.
