Finding healing for yourself, your relationship, or your child can be exhausting. Do you ever feel like giving up? Do you sometimes feel like you don’t know what to try next? There is hope. It is my honor and privilege to use the knowledge I gained in my doctoral study of psychology to help individuals, children, adolescents, and families discover the best version of themselves. I want to help you thrive in a way that focuses on the whole person. You matter and your story matters. I can help you to integrate the parts that sometimes seem scattered or lost. You don’t have to feel alone anymore.

I work (most frequently) with neurodivergent children and adolescents.
I love working with clients (2-18) who have ADHD, Autism, Sensory Processing Disorders, and other forms of neurodivergence. I use play therapy to connect with them and help them learn about their brains, their emotions, and new, more comfortable ways of expressing themselves and meeting their needs. I also enjoy connecting with parents who feel alone in the unique challenges that come with parenting these children. It can be hard to feel like the challenges are respected and the positives appreciated.
