My goal is is to strengthen both individuals and communities by providing personalized behavioral and mental health services to children, adolescents, their families, and adults.
AS PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS... we love our children unconditionally. Unfortunately, our love, no matter how great, does not always translate into a clear set of guidelines that tells us how to handle difficult behaviors, how to deal with the peer and social issues of this generation, how to help our children heal from trauma or abuse, or simply how to get our children to talk to us. Whether your child is facing challenges in one of these or in other areas, I would love to guide you and them through facing and conquering those challenges. NOT A PARENT? I didn't forget about you. Contact me to find out more about how I can help you.

I have spent most of my career helping families: as a volunteer, a childcare worker, a teacher, and for the last twelve years as a counselor.
Are you a new parent? Have you recently become the caregiver for a young child, maybe as a result of things beyond your control? Are you the parent or caregiver for a toddler, or a child with a developmental delay or disorder, or a child who has experienced trauma or other disruptive or challenging circumstances? Maybe your family is going through life changes and transitions. Or maybe you are experiencing post partum depression or anxiety (this happens to mothers AND fathers!) Maybe you are a teacher or childcare professional trying to support kids and families. You need support and compassion; a place to be real and just breathe

My hope is to walk with you, shining light to help you, your child, or your family, to find your own light and create meaning.
Hey, I'm Larkin and I'm genuinely glad you're here! The idea that we or our loved ones are struggling and need help can stir up a number of uncomfortable emotions that we often try to ignore. If there is one thing I believe holds true, it is that having feelings makes us human. Feelings help us understand the world, they guide our thoughts and behaviors, they impact our relationships, and when we learn to listen to what they are trying to tell us, they can help us grow. When our lives have been impacted by trauma or adverse experiences, tuning back in to our mind and body can feel daunting and that is where I come in!

I work with children and adolescents but also adults who have been impacted by trauma.
Trauma comes in many ways and brings with it many difficult symptoms. Fear, worry, sadness, and a feeling that you can't cope are just a few. Others don't always understand you or know how to help. This is especially true for parents who want to help their children navigate traumatic experiences but feel helpless to know where to start. There is nothing more frightening than having a child or teen who is struggling with anxiety, depression, and/or suicidal thoughts. Teenagers often feel unheard and parents can feel helpless.

My personal life of marriage and family ( children/grand children) affords me a broad practical perspective.
If you want to live more "on purpose", we will work together to facilitate just that. Few people can avoid struggles in life and sometimes these struggles are overwhelming, especially when faced alone. In therapy, solutions to your problems become obvious and you will be supported professionally to make them happen. Your relationships will improve and successful coping skills will be taught. How you feel is important and what you do in your personal life with regard to those feelings even more so.

Life's journey can be full of ups and downs that occasionally leave us feeling exhausted, confused, and deeply hurt. In these moments, we need help to overcome these challenges as we begin to make sense of these painful pieces of our story. Having someone to support you while offering compassion and empathy can help you restore and make sense of these parts of your journey. As your therapist, I seek to be an understanding presence by your side, helping you mend those fractured pieces and fueling your personal growth. I would be honored to come alongside you and support your healing journey.
