My specialty is children and adolescents.
The thought of therapy can be intimidating. I'm here to tell you that it doesn't have to be. Admitting that you have a therapeutic need is the first brave step to healing. The next step would be going to see a specialist to help you. Lets be honest...who wants to admit that they need "help"? I am here to encourage and let you know its okay. The main goal of therapy is for you to no longer need it. In my practice, you will be provided a listener, a teacher and personal homework. This will help you fulfill your goals and welcome brighter days.

In what ways is parenthood more difficult than you thought it would be? Maybe your child is struggling or having tantrums. Perhaps you feel constantly overwhelmed. Maybe you are burnt out trying to be a “good” parent while managing all the other parts of your life. Or your family could be facing a major transition or crisis that you are unsure how to navigate. Maybe you feel lost or sad because you don't recognize yourself. Parenthood can often be messy, emotional, and very, very hard. Having appropriate support can help you feel more content and better able to manage all the challenges in your life.

Children and teens today are suffering with overwhelming stress and anxiety. I help children, teens, and families cope with stress, anxiety, and mood disorders in a safe and confidential environment. Chronic stress or untreated anxiety can lead to more serious conditions with a lifelong impact. Therapy is designed to provide space and time to examine thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together we would work toward regulating emotions and developing coping strategies that foster mental wellness.

I work with adults, adolescents, children and couples through a psychodynamic and trauma informed lens to help patients restore self compassion - informing centered well-being.
I believe therapeutic change and progress evolve through the combination of a non-judgmental, insight oriented approach and the development of a therapeutic relationship. With self understanding we gain insight into repetitive cycles that often contribute to sadness, anxiety, and relationship conflicts. In my work with clients I place emphasis on the strength of the intuitive, centered self. Throughout my training and postdoctoral work, I have had the privilege to gain experience in a variety of settings ranging from private practice, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, a residential treatment center, and outpatient clinics.
