I specialize in the treatment of children, adolescents, families, and adults. I have over 10 years of experience in behavioral health and addictions and have practiced in a variety of different settings--from outpatient therapy to residential treatment--each of which has contributed to my unique approach to therapy. Anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, and other mental health issues can affect so many aspects of life; it can feel overwhelming trying to figure out where to begin to address these issues. I specialize in helping individuals and families learn the skills to navigate these issues to improve daily functioning.

I know when looking for counseling the process can seem daunting. You have to worry about specializations, openings, the time it will take to get to and from the appointment, not to mention the appointment itself. At New Heights we focus on making the process as easy as possible, from helping connect you to the best clinician within the practice to providing the most advanced treatment options we can. You matter and we want to help you achieve not just your mental health goals but making joy a part of your life.

I began practicing in 2004, seeing children and teens, and working with their parents. Over the years I have broadened my scope of practice to include working with adults and couples as well. An initial focus on young clients' issues like ADHD, depression, anxiety, and behavioral issues like ODD and CD, has grown into addressing a wider number of issues including anxiety disorders (including phobias, PTSD, etc.), marital issues, depression in adults, and so on.

I see counseling as a pathway that helps people discover their strengths and gain tools to better navigate anxiety, depression, grief, identity confusion, life transitions, or other difficult life circumstances. In a therapeutic relationship, you can process your feelings and thoughts in a safe space. My hope is that clients will be seen, be heard, and be known in the process, which empower you toward the positive change you want to see in your life.

We all have moments where we feel lost in our past and like we can't get a grip on our current daily life. It can be extremely challenging to know if your thoughts are 'normal' or if something is 'wrong' with you and even more so when you feel you do not have people in life that you can connect with on a deep level. Feeling like a crispy (burnt out) mama that isn't doing her best? Wanting some connection? I got you. This shit is hard, but I believe it may be worth it for you. I do have additional training in trauma and eating disorders.
