Immediate Availability M-Th for telehealth only. Being a parent is hard, even under the best of circumstances. When you have a child struggling with mental health, the job can become even harder. You might find yourself feeling scared or overwhelmed, having lots of questions but finding few answers. The good news is that you and your child don't have to go through this alone- I'm here to help. As a clinician, I know that the effects of mental health are felt far beyond the individual. Though I work with children and adolescents, I believe in having a collaborative relationship with all members of the family.

Regardless of the times, the circumstance or the individual, building a relationship with trust, value and efficacy matters. We also believe that this can look different for everyone. Given that, it is important that prior to finding the right therapeutic approach that meets your specific needs, we must first develop a mutual understanding and rapport with one another that feels supportive in moving forward. Next, it will become our responsibility to listen and understand what it is you would like to address and what your goals are. Your voice, experiences, and perceptions will lead us through this process.
