Alice has experience with helping children, teenagers, and parents safely navigate through their differences while they strive to understand each other’s point of view through empathy and understanding. Her goal is to ensure that families can feel safe to share their feelings and explore together the best way to communicate with each other, while considering their own attachment styles. She recognizes the importance of embracing each parent’s unique style of communication and parenting approach, while also considering the child’s needs and learning style. Alice provides treatment to families who have experienced challenges due to trauma (bullying, medical trauma, early childhood trauma, generational), traumatic grief, divorce, and acculturation. Alice’s clinical approach is to support each family member through compassion, genuine care, and open-mindedness.
