I am happy to discuss how my approach might be a fit for you, your child, or your family.
Living authentically requires courage. Sometimes past experiences can feel like a barrier that has to be removed or denied. My practice focuses on honoring the life that has shaped you, and empowering you to use those formative incidents to understand and grow into your truest self. My approach is collaborative, holistic and creative. I work with a variety of treatment styles to support my clients to go deeper into self-knowledge and self-acceptance. Modern life presents sometimes-complicated and difficult situations My job is to empower you to respond to those opportunities from a realistic, authentic self.

My specialties include and are not limited to trauma, child parent relationship difficulties, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, self harm and parenting.
Current world issues have led to an increase in suffering for many. This increase in emotional pain a person may walk in with could actually be a symptom of much deeper difficulties. Working through a secure therapeutic relationship, I help toddlers, children and adults not only resolve presenting problem, but also the deeper patterns and behaviors that may have impacted their life, relationships and parenting. Identifying and changing deeper behavioral patterns start with Authenticity, Empowerment, and Safety.

Work experience includes community mental health, substance abuse prevention and recovery, employee assistance programs, child welfare and adoption services including adult adoptees search and reunion issues.
Therapy can be a dynamic experience creating hope and energy. Facing challenges and grieving losses we inevitably face is a powerful step in moving toward a more satisfying present. I view therapy as a collaboration with you to create your transformation and growth. Our past experiences shape our view of ourselves and in turn our potential in the future. I hope to assist you to "re-author" the stories you have about yourself not serving a positive purpose and replace them with new stories, skills and a vision that do.

As a Certified Synergetic Play Therapist (SPT), I am passionate about working with all ages, but spend most of my time working with children, adolescents, and families on a wide range of issues including: trauma/PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, sibling conflict, self-harm, struggles unique to neurodivergent individuals, and identity/self esteem issues.
There is nothing more powerful than trusting yourself, believing that you can handle the bumps and valleys of life. I believe every single one of us has this resilience inside of us and sometimes we just need some gentleness, play, and connection in our mind and body to get back there. I will sit, stand, and play next to you in these hard feelings and I will do my best to bring authenticity and courage to the room together as you learn to trust and love yourself wholeheartedly.

Our lives can feel overwhelming and difficult, especially when our thoughts, relationships or behaviors are off. When we don’t feel the way we want to feel, its easy to wonder if anyone else understands where we are coming from. Our thoughts or feelings can become overwhelming and impact every other aspect of our lives. There are many things that can have great influence on how we see the world, our feelings, and our life experience. It is my goal to help each client heal from past difficulties and move forward in a positive and healthy way.

Life is a roller-coaster: often challenging and sometimes overwhelming. However, I believe that everyone can find their strength and their own path through trauma and difficult decisions.

I would like to be your guide on this healing journey and support you in connecting with your own self, recognizing your own needs, working on creating new boundaries, breaking cycles of unhealthy patterns, and developing new healthy relationships.
