The most important piece to having a successful therapeutic experience is the therapeutic alliance. With almost 20 years of experience,working with adults and adolescents I have learned that the approach I take with the person(s) I am working with depends on their own specific personality, history, culture, current life stressors and what they are looking to achieve by seeking therapeutic services.

I help people to help themselves by assisting individuals, couples, and families in making decisions and developing skills to enhance their lives. Life is filled with challenges and transitions. Sometimes we need someone who will listen with compassion and help us move from where we are to the next more comfortable resolution. I will be your compassionate witness and confident guide. You will set the goals and I will help you to achieve them. "Every decision you make brings you closer to where you want to go or further away." -Heather Lagace

There are times in our lives when we don't know what is wrong; just that something is. We wonder if we are "crazy" and are scared to be judged if we ask for help. The truth is that very sane people struggle when the difficulties in their lives outpace their coping skills. I've been a therapist for 18 years and believe strongly that healing comes through connection with others. As we increase our knowledge, we become healthier and more resilient when approaching future problems. It is an honor to work alongside people as they discover hidden strengths and resources.

I support children with various struggles. Most of my work focuses on selective mutism, social anxiety, or more general anxious emotions. My approach is very skill-based, often involving parents. It involves practice in my office, in school, and in the community. I teach school professionals to provide support as well, to help generalize treatment. Being that some forms of anxiety become apparent in preschool, I also work with very young children. When appropriate, I offer intensive treatment for selective mutism - sessions are longer in duration and occur more frequently - which allows goals to be achieved more quickly.
