I also am very passionate about my work with children and families with issues related to adoption & attachment trauma/wounds.

My ideal client is one that is ready for change and who can be committed to the therapy process. I am versed in different areas of mental health issues, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, ADHD, parenting challenges, etc. I am also an EMDR Certified Therapist to treat PTSD, trauma, and subsequent or related symptoms. I am also trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy, another modality that can be used to treat symptoms of trauma.

I Love working with children and families because I feel that the family is so important in the development of children. Helping kids to have a better home life or helping improve their transition during a divorce, a recent move, or a new school environment is an important part of my practice. I also enjoy working with adults to help them achieve their best life.
