What matters is that you reach out today so that you and your child can get relief.
Parenting is a difficult job under the best of circumstances. But if you are parenting a child who goes from 0-60 in less than 3 seconds, frequently asks (or begs!) you not to make him/her go to school, and the principal has you on speed dial, then your circumstances are extreme. Don't fall into the trap of thinking you "should" be able to handle it. Situations like these don't resolve themselves and seeking professional help is the best thing you can do.

I have experience providing emotional support and guidance for children, teens, adolescents, and families navigating educational settings as a school counselor and parent educator.
I work with preteens, teens, adolescents, and parents to navigate the challenging transition of childhood to early adulthood. I believe in the importance of relationship. We aren't ourselves when we feel uncomfortable, so my work centers on establishing a working relationship that fosters connection, collaboration, and mutual understanding. I believe that “you are the expert on you” and work to understand my client’s personal values and life perspective. Once I have a sense of who you are, we will begin to identify behavior patterns and increase awareness to focus on making meaningful changes that are right for you.

As a therapist, I spend time understanding the client’s goals and intended outcomes in therapy. The foundations of therapy should replicate the foundation of any healthy relationship, built on transparency, openness, and direct feedback so that when success is found in therapy, it can be translated more easily to the real-life situations that the clients encounter. My clinical experiences has focused primarily on children and teens. I conducted trauma-informed therapy in a residential setting conducting individual, group, and family therapy for my clients. I was also an established individual therapist on a college baseball team.

Children/Teens: Starting life with positive emotional and relational tools is useful for health and growth.
In my work as a therapist I find satisfaction in helping individuals find peace. Our world may have reasons to feel unsettled. However, there are also many reasons for hope. I find it very rewarding to witness family relationship growth, such as when a parent and child connect. My goal is to be a resource for those suffering from life stressors, normalized grief processes, and loss. Therefore I encourage conversations about areas of strength, successes that are often overlooked, and relational healing that can take place. I often incorporate a solution-oriented approach in working with children, teens, parents, and couples.

I align with children's natural languages by using play therapy & art therapy modalities.
It takes courage to seek help...for yourself or for your child/teen. I recognize how influential parents are when it comes to the emotional lives of their kids. Therefore my approach often includes some work with you to help you understand your child/teen's behaviors and to identify the implicit emotional needs in what you may be seeing. Often these externalized behaviors require some attuned response from you which can assist your child to feel and function better, and make important adaptations to family/life situations.
