In my work with children and adolescents I use a combination of talk and expressive play therapy to help youth better understand and manage their behavior, feelings and impulses.
I am a clinical social worker with extensive experience treating children, adolescents and adults of diverse backgrounds. I have advanced training in contemporary psychoanalysis and utilize an integrated approach tailored to suit an individual's unique needs. I believe the central goal of all psychotherapy is to develop the ability to put into words our thoughts, feelings, memories and fantasies. I am attentive, supportive and encourage reflection on both past and present life experiences. I strive to create an environment that encourages openness and vulnerability and place high value in a strong, working therapeutic relationship.

My experience extends to working with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults dealing with anxiety, autism, ADHD, sibling conflicts, low self-esteem, and poor social skills.

Together, we can embark on a path to acquire valuable skills that will enrich your daily life. I approach each individual from where they currently are, offering a warm and accepting environment to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Through my work with children, parents, school staff, and therapeutic providers, I understand the nuances necessary for successful growth.
Every child, adolescent, and parent has a unique set of strengths and experiences. Making home and school happy, safe and successful for you and your child requires harnessing existing skills, building new strengths, and carefully navigating challenges. I bring a holistic approach to help you and your child foster positive social, emotional, and behavioral well-being across settings.

I work primarily with adolescents, children, and young adults who have had very difficult experiences and need a safe, playful, and steady partner to explore the impact of these events on their lives. As an out queer clinician I also work regularly with LGBTQIA+ clients who seek a therapist aware of the complexity of those identities in the world, as well as with parents looking to better develop skills to support trans or queer-identified children. I recognize racism and white supremacy as forms of social oppression that provoke traumatic responses and work accordingly with clients who have been harmed by these systems.

Hi, everyone! I recognize that mental health is much more than what's happening mentally, but also deals with issues of physical health, social and environmental factors, and relationships. I'm culturally competent in several areas such as race, sexuality, gender identity, religion, and disability and have specialization in working with autistic individuals, individuals with ADHD, and children.

Do you feel stuck? That something is missing but you're not sure what? How about that you know what's missing and it's being true to who you are? Throughout the years of experience that I have working with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults I have learned that at the basis of all of our life experiences, we all wish to be heard, accepted, and to feel connected to ourselves, others, and our emotions. By being in a safe therapeutic relationship that accepts you as you are, you are able to unburden the heaviness that you've been carrying and with this new feeling of relief, there is hope for something new and healing.

You and your child have co-created the strong relationship you both want.
Do you or your child often feel anxious, or find it hard to trust anyone? You can’t stop thinking about what happened and you try to push those thoughts away. You can’t sleep or sleep too much. You worry if you talk about it, you will make things worse. You’ll unravel, start crying and never stop. These are some of the common symptoms associated with traumatic life events. As a nationally recognized expert in trauma treatment, I utilize and train others in evidence based methods to enable individuals and families overcome the impact of painful life experiences or trauma. By reading this now you are taking the first, important step.

Being vulnerable, feeling safe, laughing, and pushing past the distress are just a few of the moments that are shared in the therapeutic relationship journey. I often work with individuals, children, families and couples who feel lost and hopeless after experiencing trauma or feeling stuck by perpetuating issues. At times, experiences that we go through may also lead to anxiety, depression, and feeling lost for how to move forward. I work with individuals to help identify ways to have these "rocks" removed and develop plans that could be accessed outside of our therapy sessions.

I have worked with adults, adolescents and children, with individuals and groups.
Change is rarely easy. Life comes with changes that sometimes can feel overwhelming to navigate. Acknowledgment is the first step, and seeking help comes next. My approach is to meet you where you are, in a genuine and empathetic way. I provide a neutral, non-judgmental, yet challenging environment to explore and find positive coping strategies. I believe positive coping strategies empower us to live better lives and handle change effectively. I will walk with you on this path of your life, and will help you to become who you are destined to be.

I provide strategies geared towards fostering positive child behavior, strengthening parent- child relationships, assisting individuals, couples, and families coping with life's changes, and promoting self-resilience.
Being a parent can be tough and can often lead to a lot of “what if” questions and stress while balancing being a parent and life’s challenges. Whether you're navigating tantrums, or experimenting with different discipline strategies, all while trying to keep yourself and relationships afloat, it can become overwhelming.
