My ideal client would be a child, pre-teen or teenager who is struggling with suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety or familial difficulties. They’re working on discovering who they are in a world that is constantly changing….and so are they! Their goals are to develop coping skills to help manage their symptoms of anxiety, depression & feelings leading to suicidal ideation. They are navigating their personal relationships, as well as their family relationships. They want to feel better, heard & be confident with themselves.
The way I work with each client is different and catered to what they are looking for. As an active listener and reflective responder, I will provide truth and judgement free perspectives. I will lead with empathy and always attempt to make my clients laugh.
I want you to know how important and worthy you are. Our toughest days can carry a lot of self-doubt and feelings of worthlessness, which are not great feelings. I want you to build the skills to be your own hype boss & feel that you can conquer the world. Lets get to it!

I often use Cognitive Behavior therapy and Strength-Based in my practice. It is important for you to understand the different types of therapy and how we will be using them. CBT focuses around on how your emotions affect your thoughts, we will focus a lot on identifying negative thought patterns. Strength based requires insight & reflection, something I will assist you with.
