Empowering my clients, one session at a time, through vulnerability

I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in a variety of practice settings over the past 20 years. My primary area of interest and training is working with children under the age of 10 dealing with issues of anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, autism, developmental delay, divorce, grief, medical issues, behavioral problems, and more. I believe children have limitless potential for growth and they have an innate capacity for resiliency. I also believe that parents and primary caregivers play a critical role in a child's recovery and a joint approach to working with children is essential to healing.

As a LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), I enjoy working with individuals. My goal is to provide you with some guidance, to teach skills, and provide new ways of looking at situations to better deal with life's challenges.
