With children, I utilize Child-Centered Play Therapy, and integrate additional modalities if needed.
Sometimes our life experiences can feel overwhelming, often holding us back from living the life we wish to enjoy. When we get caught in this vicious cycle, it can feel defeating and all hope can seem to be lost. I believe this isn't something you need to go through alone. I am honored to walk alongside you during your therapeutic journey, as I offer a safe space for you to process your experiences, and meet your specific emotional and behavioral goals. I have confidence in the healing potential of each person, and I utilize a treatment plan that best fits your unique and individualized needs.

Even children with the same diagnosis have differences in the challenges that they face and the treatments that will work for them.
Our vision at Alderwood Psychological Services is to be a leading center for pediatric neuropsychology services in Charlotte. Recognizing that development is a complex process that involves nature and nurture, biology and environment, my goals are to assess the whole child, to suggest interventions that respect the individuality of each child and family, and to promote healthy and positive development. I have over 25 years of experience in neuropsychological testing with a special focus in working with children and adolescents with learning disorders, attention related problems, anxiety/mood challenges, and head injury.

When working with young children, I utilize a Child-Centered Play Therapy approach.
I view counseling as an opportunity for self-exploration, growth, and healing. My top priority is to build a trusting relationship while creating a space where clients feel safe, respected and heard. I use an integrative approach, drawing predominately from Person-Centered modalities and techniques while utilizing Trauma Invested/Informed Therapy, Child-Centered Play Therapy, and Child Parent Relationship Training (CPRT). I truly believe that every client is unique, varying in strengths, struggles, and personalities. Therefore, I tailor each treatment plan to meet each client where they are, in the present moment.

Are you finally ready to see change within yourself or your child? I believe the biggest obstacle to change is setting too high standards, leading to disappointment and remaining in unhealthy patterns. In our sessions, I aim to point out these patterns, provide suggestions/techniques, and be a constant voice of support. Whether I am working with a child, teen, or adult I prioritize ways to make the sessions engaging and meet the client where they are on that specific day. Change rarely happens overnight but with me as your counselor, let's start celebrating our small wins. Tomorrow doesn't have to look the same.

You are struggling with a negative self-concept coexisting with a high level of anxiety that is more likely the result of irrational negative thoughts. The issues present interfere with daily functioning and pleasurable activities. For example, despite regular positive feedback, you might feel defective because of a single benign criticism, which causes overwhelming anxiety at the thought of being exposed. Engaging with others becomes a daily struggle. You might need help changing your thoughts and feelings about yourself, enhancing self-esteem, and building self-confidence to improve your quality of life.

With support and some guidance, clients have the opportunity to rediscover their strengths, build self-awareness and experience true connection which can lead to a life of purpose and fulfillment. I believe if you are willing, you have the ability to take action and kindle the fire inside of you to kick-start the changes you want to see in your life.
