Thank you for taking the time to consider my professional services. Finding the right therapist is as much about experience as it is about fit. That is why I tell everyone I meet that our first session is not only a chance for me to get to know you, but also for you to get to know me. Having worked with individuals, couples, and families for over ten years, I have learned that life is hard enough as it is. You don't have to continue going it alone. We all could use a little extra help every once in a while, so why not reach out and see what we can accomplish together.

You may be worried about your child. Over time, you've noticed a shift in his or her mood. Your once happy, well-adjusted child now appears increasingly angry, irritable, anxious and defensive. Despite your best efforts to connect, conversations often escalate into arguments. You're exhausted from worry and overthinking. I truly understand the struggles and know that your ultimate goal is to support your child unconditionally, to reconnect and support a close bond built on trust and open communication. And, most of all, you are ready to feel that your child is happy and thriving once again.

Are you struggling with your infant or young child's mood or behaviors? Are they having a tough time adjusting to changes in their home or life? Have they experienced something that has changed their mood or behaviors? Toddlers and young children can have difficulty expressing themselves and need help to learn how. They may also struggle with learning how to adjust and cope with changes in their home, daycare, or school environments. Play therapy is a natural and great way for children to express themselves and learn new skills. Working with them at their level of understanding fosters understanding and healing.

As a counselor, I do not rely on one type of therapy because everyone is unique. I offer an adaptive approach that dabbles in many theories to tailor a therapy plan as unique as the individual. Everyone has their own life to live, and they are the ones to decide on how that life is to be lived. Let me help you explore those possibilities and discover the life you want and deserve.

Does your child or adolescent's worry, anxiety, or sadness get in the way of their day-to-day activities? Does it feel like you're talking in circles and running into the same challenging behaviors over and over? Without a “how-to” guide, it can be exhausting and overwhelming trying to assist your child or teen on your own. Even the process of seeking professional help can be daunting. If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. As a Licensed Psychologist, I use a collaborative and strengths-based approach to help children, adolescents, and parents overcome challenges, improve relationships, and experience more joy.

Every one of us is feeling overwhelmed these days! You may not even know where to start to take care of yourself sometimes, particularly if you are going through something challenging. Please know you are not alone, and I am here to help you. Mental health is about promoting wellness, not just relieving illness. All of us get “stuck” in life, including the “professionals”…that’s what it means to be human! Life throws us many curveballs, and we aren’t given manuals on how to handle it all. But despite all of this, challenges can become opportunities to learn more about yourself, and to regain your personal power.
