Who I help

Carolina is a child therapist specializing in early childhood mental health for children ages 2–14. She supports families in navigating big emotions and challenging behaviours through play therapy for children and parent coaching for caregivers. Using research-based, developmentally appropriate strategies, she provides practical guidance and skills. Parent coaching is a valuable option when child therapy is not accessible due to distance or cost, or when families need additional support. If your unsure how to assist your child, help is available.

How I work

When big emotions and challenging behaviours take over, daily life can feel exhausting and overwhelming. Carolina works to support children and coach parents with research-based tools to reduce meltdowns, build emotional skills, and restore calm and connection at home—so families can feel confident and hopeful again.

What parents can expect

If parenting feels harder than it should—tantrums, shutdowns, or constant power struggles—you don’t have to navigate it alone. Carolina help families make sense of big feelings and challenging behaviour with practical, supportive guidance. If you're in need of support, book a free consult to discuss next steps.
