I believe in an individualized approach to mental health therapy. My job as a therapist is not to "fix" you or to help you find freedom in becoming more like others. With children, my primary approach is neurobiologically informed and play-based. I do not believe obstacles in life can be overcome by simply thinking differently. My practice is focused on building connection with self (mind, body, spirit) through trauma informed exploration.
I am a trauma-informed mental health therapist with a lot of experience working with children, youth, and their families. I have been a social worker since 2011, and have been in the school system working directly with students since 2017. Although my specialty areas are trauma and ADHD, I love supporting all people.
