I have specialized in working with different ages over the past almost 3 decades and now get to work with them ALL. I creatively engage children/adolescents with interventions tailored to individual needs. I equip & support my clients' parents/guardians from a parent and clinician perspective. My favorite job of all time was directing a college counseling center as young adulthood is an ideal time for intervention to build resiliency and equip for the future. I want to meet adult clients in the midst of their challenges, crises, mental health struggles, and just plain life.

I believe resilience is a natural response to adversity. The relationship (therapeutic alliance) is one of the biggest predictors of change and improved outcomes in therapy. Seeking therapy is a sign of strength and the desire to change. I am honored to have the opportunity to help individuals, families, and children gain resilience through changes they are facing.

Change can be difficult, whether it's a change you choose or a change you are forced to make. Therapy can provide support as you adapt to life's countless transitions. As an outpatient therapist, I have worked alongside teens, young adults, and adults as they address a wide range of issues originating from shifts in stages of life, unexpected crises, and processing major life traumas. I am grounded in a strengths-based approach, and incorporate Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy to address issues surrounding anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, and sexuality.

A significant portion of my clients seek guidance from someone who understands the perspectives of spirituality and religion and how it connects to their individual experiences, challenges, frustrations, and interests. Whether you are already connected to a particular religion or spiritual path, navigating questions, obstacles, or past traumas stemming from your religious upbringing, or curious about beginning a spiritual practice, I can help. I offer a compassionate presence that helps you deepen your relationship with yourself and others, explore new ideas, challenge existing ones, and simply offer a non-judgmental listening ear.

Life can be a wonderful experience though it is guaranteed to be filled with challenges. We all manage these challenges in different ways, from controlling our food/body, perfectionism, avoidance and over functioning. These methods often leave us exhausted and overwhelmed. If this resonates with you I am here to help. I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, self esteem/body image issues and trauma. I work with my clients to identify their own, unique value system which then serves as a guide post through life. By aligning with our values, we create space to accept the difficulties of life and lead a life you desire.

Living on planet Earth right now is an intense experience for many of us. I work with clients looking for a holistic approach to addressing personal issues, such as navigating life changes and transitions, painful relational patterns, and trauma (including acute and complex childhood trauma). I support individuals in learning tools to utilize the wisdom of the mind-body-soul connection to access a greater sense of ease, clarity, groundedness, and cultivate the capacity to enjoy supportive relationships.

Children often do not have the words to express what they are feeling or thinking. Traditional talk therapy alone is rarely successful in helping children process difficult life situations. At Lawrence Play Therapy, therapists can work with your child and family to bring healing. Play therapy involves children exploring their thoughts and feelings by using play rather than just talking. The toys are the child's words and play is the child's language. We specialize in therapy with children ages 2 - 12. We also incorporate family therapy, Theraplay, and EMDR when appropriate.

I am a firm believer in the idea that there is no issue too small, and know that the path to growth and healing can be a scary one. In the words of Tiffany Roe, “you gotta feel, deal, heal.” I consider it an honor to walk this path with people and believe that there is hope in all stories. I work with eating disorders, self esteem/body issues, anxiety disorders, and depression. I work with my clients to identify their unique values and integrate their mind and body experience.
