Bio
“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children, play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.” - Fred Rogers
Lindsay believes that children's learning and growth is facilitated through play. Children are able to express themselves during play when words are too hard. As your therapist, Lindsay provides unconditional positive regard in a safe, unbiased environment.
