I deeply enjoy connecting with adolescents and children. I have 7 younger siblings whose ages currently range from early adolescence to adulthood. From the time my parents divorced several years ago, I have become a mentor for several of my siblings and remain closely connected to them. In addition to my clinical training, my sibling relationships have given me years of personal experience working with children and adolescents and their varying personalities and responses as they experienced hard things.

Now accepting new clients! I work with preteens, teens, and adults of all ages. I especially enjoy working with children from age 11 to adults up to age 30. The rapid change that occurs between the ages of 11 and 30 can present unique challenges. When those challenges emerge, therapy can be utilized to foster healthy coping skills and develop an emotional vocabulary that can provide a lifetime of benefits. I embrace meeting the client where they are in their life. Many of the techniques I utilize in therapy can immediately translate to beneficial skills used outside of sessions and throughout life to sustain wellness.
