Preparing children for change

Aside from working directly with children, my specializations are also utilized to support families with “using the right words” and explaining an anticipated change such as a diagnosis, terminal illness, death, or divorce, as well as supporting a family through the responses to change and helping them to cope.

Tools for children

  • Games, sandtray, objects

  • Feeling charades/feeling games

  • Thought stopping 

  • Art, paint and crafts

  • Anxiety reducing techniques

  • Books

  • Journals
