Do you suffer from the effects of having bad experiences that have left you feeling traumatized & stuck in the past? There are big "T" (traumatic) events such as sexual assault, rape, child abuse, war, death, major car accidents and then there are what is called the little "t" events such as emotional abuse, neglect, rejection, homophobia (bi-trans), hurt and a series of other "seemingly smaller" but yet a times equally damaging experiences. Over time these events can over time erode your feelings of self esteem, sense of safety and ability to trust in the world.

I have extensive experience within the field of special needs, as an educational consultant and in addressing behavioral and developmental needs of children within their academic settings.
Our lives are constructed from many roles and stories. We, as human beings, are the teller of those tales. Is your narrative one, as Plato stated, flowing from "three sources: desire, emotion, and knowledge?" Is it rich in self-care, dignity, and compassion? Or, are the stories and thoughts you carry heartless, punitive, or corrosive?

I understand that each child is unique, with their own set of challenges and strengths.
Your child is struggling with anxiety, finding it difficult to manage their emotions, or having trouble making friends. Maybe they've been dealing with bullying at school, experiencing low self-esteem, or facing challenges within the family dynamic. As a parent, you want nothing more than to see your child happy, confident, and resilient, capable of navigating the ups and downs of growing up.

I can help with: social-emotional development, child defiance, self-soothing, low self-esteem, attentional/impulsivity issues, time management, identity development, resiliency, relationships, life transitions, self-growth, anxiety/depression.
I believe that everyone has the potential for self-growth and positive change is most reachable with accountability in an unconditional supportive environment. I utilize strength-based treatment, such as building one's "toolbox" or set of coping, assertiveness, and communication skills, and incorporate outside supports to enhance the therapeutic process. With children, I utilize a directive play method and also feel it's critical for parents to be involved in the therapeutic process through family sessions. With teens or adults, I utilize a solution-focused style and cognitive-behavioral techniques.

Deciding that you, your child, or your family need some help is a brave step, and I’m excited to learn more about what you’re looking for.
I offer neurodiversity-affirming, client-focused care to children, adolescents and adults. My clients tend to have several of these qualities: They are highly intelligent and verbal. They often feel like they don’t fit in, but may form fewer and deeper friendships. They throw themselves enthusiastically into the things they’re passionate about. They struggle to find appropriate outlets for intense emotions. They often have “geeky” hobbies. Many identify as neurodivergent, autistic, or a person with ADHD, with or without a diagnosis.

I work with clients of all ages and groupings: adults, couples, families, and children from preschool through teens. When working with adults and adolescents, I personalize the therapeutic sessions using a blend of art therapy, mindfulness techniques, sand tray, and traditional talk therapy to explore and transform areas of difficulty. Young children often manifest their emotions and experiences through their behavior, and I use art therapy, play therapy, sandtray techniques, and a positive, warm connection to help work through and translate their inner experience, as well as work with the family system to provide support at home.
