✨ Big news! ✨

I’m thrilled to share that I just wrapped up my very first presentation at a major conference!

🌟 Stepping out of my comfort zone was a little scary, but it gave me the chance to share my passion for trauma-informed care and child-centered play therapy with an amazing audience.

This experience stretched me in the best way possible, and I’m so excited to keep growing and sharing more of this work. 💚 Huge thanks to Nicole Ditch LLC for helping me bring my presentation to life—you made it all come together beautifully!

A huge thank you to The Haven, Inc. for hosting such a powerful trauma training event—it was truly an honor to be part of it!

Thanks to everyone who’s cheered me on along the way. Your support means the world❤️
