My passion is helping children and families work through problems and issues that disrupt positive relationships. I specialize in working with children who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, behavioral problems in several environments, family dynamics, anger, relationship concerns, school/work stressors, trauma issues, and unhealthy communication patterns. I particularly enjoy helping foster/adoptive families find peace and cohesion in their new family situation. I also love helping children with severe emotional and behavioral issues. I provide a caring, non-judgmental approach. You can change your life. I can help.
I am now offering Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), an effective, evidence-based dyad treatment for children from infants to 6 years of age and caregivers who have experienced trauma. Feel free to contact us with questions.
