While parents often blame themselves for being part of the problem (which may not be true), parents are always part of the solution and treatment for their children's mental health.
Have you tried everything to help your child and nothing seems to be working? Maybe you've seen a therapist before and it wasn't helpful or your child refused to talk and it was a waste of time. I can help support you in understanding your child and their individualized needs. I specialize in teaching parents therapeutic interventions to use with their children at home to reduce meltdowns, decrease anxiety, and increase coping skills (for yourself and your child). And if working with you isn't enough to help your child, I am a registered play therapist able to communicate with children through play (no talking necessary).

With the relationship we build together, I believe you will acquire the skills needed to become stronger and happier.

A little about me: I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in developmental psychology and policies around violence against women and children.
The environment we grow up in can have an enormous impact on the way we view and navigate the world. As a result, we tend to become stuck in this cycle of shame and blame. I am no stranger to generational trauma and my goal is to help you break cycles of self-doubt and negative coping by embracing your most authentic self.

Life is a series of challenges. Society reinforces quick fixes to be happy. I am realistic and believe that living the kind of life you desire is not about avoiding distress and challenges. It is about learning skills and having the right tools to function while feeling distress and facing those challenges. True growth occurs in the face of discomfort, so therapy is not always easy. I provide a safe space while you go through those times of discomfort. It is the willingness to tolerate that discomfort and when real transformation and empowerment occurs.

Finding a therapist can be an overwhelming task. You don't want to pick some name off a list. If you are looking for help, you might feel at the end of your rope, you don't know what else to do, like nobody understands or "gets" you, or that you need some simple guidance. We can help. Therapy isn't magic. Most people intellectually know what they need to do, they just need guidance, encouragement, or new skills to get there.
