I specialize in working with neuro-divergent populations, BPD populations, and improving adult parent/adult child estrangement.
Reaching out for help and healing is one of the most difficult things for anyone to do. Learning, growing and improving is something that should be a lifelong endeavor. If you are reading this, then clearly you are looking for help in this journey we know as life. Everything I do as a counselor revolves around helping people learn, grow and improve themselves – whether this means overcoming trauma experienced, recent life changes, or just looking to better understand how you operate as a person, my goal is for you to be able to walk away from working with me saying, “I am a better version of myself than I was a year ago”.

At its core therapy is about having a place where your story is heard and you are seen as the whole person you are. I have a devotion toward helping women and very young children and have years of experience focused on trauma, abuse, infertility, anxiety, depression and family issues. I have worked with kids as young as two and am so amazed by their resiliency and ability to process through play. Women and men come in thinking they are alone with issues related to infertility, parenting, sexuality, and more because these are not things people talk about openly but life is messy and having a safe place process it helps.

I'm a therapist with a passion for helping individuals heal from trauma whether it be situational or relational. I was previously a school counselor for 14 years. During that time, I learned that everyone needs a safe place to be themselves, share hard things, vent, cry, and process thoughts & feelings with someone who will listen with an open mind and an open heart. My interactions with students, parents, and colleagues deepened my understanding of the complexities of human relationships and the importance of connection and empowerment.

When the parent-child relationship is disrupted early in life, even in utero, this can impact the child's early brain development, leading to an insecure attachment relationship with the primary parent.
My approach to counseling is holistic because of the relationships between our minds, emotions, physical bodies, and spirits. Stress and stress management involve all aspects of our being. New research shows the connection between chronic stress in childhood and chronic physical and emotional illness in adults, and mind-body approaches that can help with healing. I also specialize in working with LGBTQ clients and their families. I am challenged and inspired by the difficulties that LGBTQ people face as they embrace their identities. Always, I want to support my clients in becoming their best, most authentic selves.

Parenting Therapists
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.
When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.
How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
