I've led a mindfulness group for adults and love using DBT in my approach.
I love working with kids and seeing how play transforms lives! I am a clinical social worker and a registered play therapist (RPT). I have worked with kids with a variety of concerns including behaviors, trauma, and regulation. I'm very playful in my approach, using a lot of sensory tools and activities specific to each child. I am client-centered, strengths based, trauma-informed and use an eclectic approach.

I use CBT, DBT, and Solution Focused work, using mindfulness, breathing techniques, visualization, and goal setting to help clients reach their short and long-term goals.
My ideal client is someone who comes to therapy in a time of need. They might be experiencing anxiety due to life changes and transitions or they might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety for the first time and be concerned as to where the anxiety came from. The client might be processing loss or grief from a loved one or past friendships and or relationships. My ideal client will have needs such as needing to identify coping skills to get through life stressors, assistance with reaching goals. As a therapist I would be able to provide the client with a objective perspective to bounce their ideas and situations off of.

Using evidence-based therapies like play therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and DBT ( Dialectical Behavior Therapy), These therapies are designed to meet your unique needs along with a person centered approach.
It can be overwhelming when anxiety, depression, or life transitions feel like they’re holding you back or making things harder than they should be. Whether it’s your child having big emotions, or you feeling like you’re losing control of your own emotions, it’s natural to want support but hard to know where to start. You’re not alone in this. So many people feel the same way—unsure, stuck, and anxious about taking that first step toward seeking help. But what if there was a space designed just for you, a space where your feelings are validated and where you can begin to feel empowered to move forward?

My approach is person-centered, so while I use many theories, (CBT, DBT, TFCBT) the most important thing is truly understanding my clients and reflecting back the unconditional good I find in them, despite their symptoms or regrets.
Currently accepting new clients! Do your thoughts and emotions feel like they are spiraling out of control? Are you often seen as too sensitive, or overdramatic? Do you explode, and then feel really guilty? But it seems like nobody listens unless you yell, and then the yelling just reinforces all the critical thoughts you had about yourself to begin with? Sometimes it’s easier to focus on everyone else’s problems instead of getting your own needs met. I love helping burnt-out caregivers, and people-pleasers, learn how to control their thoughts and emotions, communicate their needs, live in the moment, and finally feel good enough.

The counseling process can and should involve exploring goals and needs. It is ok to have an idea of how counseling can help, and it's okay to let me help you explore that topic. Not everyone knows what they want or why. And, sometimes, what we want and need changes. The ideal client is willing to show up and do some exploring.
