I work with children, adolescents, and adults and treat a variety of challenges including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, interpersonal issues, and life transitions.
Some people come to therapy to process trauma. Some people have stressful jobs, difficulties in school, or other life challenges and want to unlock coping skills. Some people are worried or sad or both and do not know why or how to feel better. As a licensed clinical social worker, I use my clinical experience and training to guide you in your self-exploration. I believe that people deserve to enjoy life and to suffer less. I can provide you with an objective professional perspective and I will listen, empower, and support you on your journey.

I will assist in strengthening the parent- child relationship, fostering a more relaxed and cohesive home environment.
If you’re reading this, your child is likely facing significant challenges. Are they worrying, acting out, highly emotional, maybe hyperactive or inattentive? Their struggles are affecting their happiness, leaving you feeling anxious and unsure. Understanding and managing childhood behaviors can be tough. Navigating the teenage years adds another layer of complexity. Emotional outbursts can create conflict making you feel helpless. Teens retreat to their room, shut down; raising worries about their well-being. Their grades may be slipping, socially they seem lost, little self esteem; leaving you puzzled about these rapid changes.

I bring years of experience working with children as young as 3 with play therapy, and as young as 93! My practice has organically moved to working with children, teens, and their parents, and I love it! I am comfortable using all modes of therapy and have found the most successful for children and teens is CBT, DBT, ERP and positive psychology (for parents too). However, I truly believe the most important requirement is for a connection to be established between therapist and client. I pride myself on being able to connect with so many clients leading to their successes. I look forward to meeting and helping you too!
