It takes courage to ask for help. Every person big or small deserves to be supported and championed as they continue to work to grow. Parents often feel overwhelmed in knowing how to best provide support for those they love most: their children. Children are innately different from adults as they develop into their true selves. It is my honor to partner with parents to bridge this gap and provide space for their child to be supported, heard, and grow in confidence. I see clients of all ages including children, adolescents, parents, and adults. I also offer faith integrative Christian counseling upon client request only.

I am pretty traditional in my beliefs about the purpose of therapy, but not your traditional therapist.I do not sit with a notebook and write down everything you say with a hmm at the end before I collect my fee.I am interactive and even directive sometimes. I guess that's why I work well with teenagers:) So, if you want therapy to be fun, I'm your gal. My specialty area has been adolescents and addiction for over 30 years, but I see adults too (codependence, divorce, parent alienation) etc. I am also a past President of LPCA, and operate a new virtual business called ProjectEvolve.com. It is an alternative to social media for kids.

Are you worried about your teen? Feel like you have tried everything to help your teen and it seems like nothing has worked? There are many reasons why your teen may be irritable, isolate, have poor grades in school, or seem to enjoy breaking rules. For over 20 years I have worked with adolescents and their families on learning to communicate more effectively and gain a sense of control over their lives. I have a strong background in working with adolescents and adults with drug and alcohol issues.

I aim to create a trusting environment where you feel safe to explore your stressors and emotions, as well as practice and implement strategies to elicit change. I also find when we better understand our strengths and emphasize our self-worth, we become more ready for growth and feel less stuck.
