Child therapy rooted in play and expressive arts

Amorn O’Connor, LMHC

Individual Child Therapy & Parent Consultations

— Welcome —

There’s no greater joy than seeing your child happy and healthy.

However sometimes things happen in early life you wish your child didn’t have to experience. You might worry about the impact on their development or find yourself unsure how to best support them.

Maybe you’ve found your way here because…

  • Separation and divorce

    You want your child to have a supportive place to process complex feelings

  • Child anxiety

    You want to prepare them for stressful changes in family life

  • Child development

    You want to better understand your child’s needs

  • Adoptive families

    You want support connecting with your child and building a strong bond

  • Your child is showing you big emotions and difficult behaviors you’re struggling to understand

  • Parent-child bonding support

    Or, you’re just not sure how to best help your child through a challenging time...

I’m glad you’re here. You’ve come to the right place.

Hi, there!

I’m Amorn, a play-based, expressive arts therapist and parent consultant dedicated to helping children grow with confidence and emotional wellness in the early years of life. I’m passionate about listening to the unique ways young children interpret and respond to stress, and working closely with parents at finding the most effective tools to restore ease and joy on their developmental path.
