We are highly experienced having been in the field for over 30 years each. Our private practice as psychologists has been in Wisconsin for the last 20 years. Our work with children, and adolescents, includes using Play Therapy, Filial Play Therapy, Art and Sand Play Therapy, animal-assisted therapy, and relationship based therapy. Psychological testing available with Dr. Martin Poe.
We are experienced in many methods of therapy including cognitive behavior strategies. We use a developmental framework to help parents and understand what the needs are of their children and develop interventions that can be implemented at home to facilitate the maturational processes that heal the difficulties experienced in the school, home or community.

As a clinical psychologist, I work from the assumption that we all have within us what we need in order to heal and thrive.
Depending on the assessment, when working collaboratively to understand the nature of the problem at hand, I usually work first from a practical level.
This involves using cognitive-behavioral and Mindfulness approaches and a Family Systems and psychodynamic model.
This work may deepen further toward a more internal, personal level, through use of dreams (from a Jungian perspective) and sometimes Sand Play (which involves use of miniatures representing a multitude of experiences, positioning them in a tray of sand).

Play Therapy facilitates maturational development and is helpful with a wide range of problems and diagnoses.
In our experience, Play Therapy has been effective in treating normal children as well as populations with cognitive disabilities, Down Syndrome, learning disabilities and Autism Spectrum Disorders.
For parents wanting to minimize or eliminate the need for psychiatric medications, Play Therapy is often a good choice.
We are often able to help adults and children who have a history of treatment failures, in particular treatment-resistant depression.
