Hello, my name is Dina! I am a therapist with over 20 years of experience caring for children in various settings (homes, camps, and schools). I have a BA in Elementary Education, an MA in Counseling Psychology with a specialization in Somatic Psychology, and am a certified mindfulness educator and early childhood teacher. My therapeutic work with children has centered around play and the expressive arts: I believe play and creativity are the vehicles through which children explore, learn, and process their internal and external world. My approach is warm, compassionate, attuned, nurturing, and playful!
