Elizabeth Obrien is a licensed professional counselor dedicated to helping children navigate their emotions through the transformative power of play. She understands that children often express themselves more effectively through play than through verbal communication, and she utilizes this insight in her play therapy sessions. In her therapeutic environment, children are free to symbolize their emotions—addressing feelings of sadness, anxiety, and worry without the weight of direct discussion. Elizabeth facilitates a space where difficult emotions are acknowledged and worked through, allowing children to find solutions to their challenges. Her approach fosters healthy growth and development, boosts self-esteem, and improves self-control while teaching children effective ways to interact with peers. Through respectful collaboration with each child’s support network, Elizabeth believes that meaningful improvements in behavior and mood can be achieved, paving the way for resilience and emotional well-being.
