I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and Registered Play Therapist (RPT). I am skilled at working with the most challenging of children, ages 3 - 12. Their needs vary from trauma, anxiety, anger outbursts, adjustment problems, to grief/loss. Play Therapy is a researched approach that allows your child to take the lead in the session, while the therapist follows and interprets his/her play. Their self-paced process allows your child to work through issues without fear or trepidation. When he/she is ready to reconnect, the process is complete.

While working from a mindfulness-based approach, I incorporate teachings from Eastern and Western philosophies while meeting the individual wherever they are in the moment. My holistic approach involves the mind-body connection, neuroscience, neurobiology, quantum theory, polyvagal theory, tapping into the bioenergetic field, and how the brain, mind and body are interrelated. I utilize natural healing techniques such as; breathing exercises, relaxation therapy, visualization, mindfulness meditation, emotional regulation techniques, self-compassion awareness, energy work, and hypnotherapy to facilitate change (Natural Healing).

Healing can be messy and change can be hard. It takes an insane amount of courage to begin these processes. Change can happen by choice or it can be thrust upon you. Seeking counseling does not always mean that there is something wrong. Counseling can sometimes help obtain clarity in various aspects of life, complex emotions and behaviors, and trauma. Some of the issues that I help individuals overcome are anxiety, depression, various traumas, relationship conflicts, LGBTQIA+, and overall life stressors. Because every client is different, I use an integrative approach bringing in a range of therapeutic interventions.
