Are you a parent/caregiver looking for someone to help your child, or are you a young adult looking for someone to talk to? Youths have unique challenges to face: school stressors, difficulty socializing with peers, struggles in identifying complex feelings, having a hard time focusing, and the list goes on.

It's normal for us to, at times, be pushed to the threshold of what we may believe we are capable of managing. But whether our difficulties come to us in the form of overwhelming school or work obligations, an unhealthy relationship, or an inability to find the appropriate way to cope with a difficult emotion or painful memory, we can always find a way to not only manage, but to thrive.

Life can be a lot. It's surprisingly helpful to take a step back and talk it out with an unbiased person who really listens.

I incorporate mindfulness-based techniques, kindness, directness, and humor into my practice. I also recognize that everyone’s therapy process is different and so I strive to meet each individual where they are.
