Porscha sees all ages from 5 - 99. She teaches them to advocate for themselves, learns how to healthily express their discomfort, and find language for their big emotions. The highlight of working with this population for Porscha is seeing how vast children’s vocabulary is. Porscha’s desire is for everyone to treat therapy as a seatbelt, not something only used in an emergency, but a tool designed to protect you.
