Children: I love supporting children in developing skills and in their relationships with others.
I delight in working with children and families as a therapist. Kids are so wonderful and I love supporting them and their relationship with their parents. This includes helping clients gain coping skills to face this world today, skills to manage anxiety, depression, to verbally express needs, and to manage behaviors. This includes supporting parents through family therapy, working on parenting strategies, and including parents in the therapy process as their child develops skills. I enjoy seeing connection and family growth in those I work with.

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.

Well, here we are! Most of us recovering from a global pandemic, the monkey pox, and now we must worry whether our children will be safe in their schools and whether to return to work or work from home. The decisions we must make for ourselves and our families can be difficult, and sometimes that can be very overwhelming. Life can be stressful; I know firsthand what it’s like to suffer and make sacrifices I wasn’t ready for. I too have issues; I would be lying to you if I told you otherwise. Sometimes it can feel as if we have no one to talk to and nobody who cares. Well, I care, and we can face through life’s issues together.

"During difficult times I teach people how to better manage their lives and how to avoid feeling victimized by outside circumstances. I establish rapport easily with people and accept people exactly where they are. I create a safe, trusting environment in which a therapeutic relationship can develop. Counseling is an opportunity to learn new skills which may include: improving self-esteem, setting boundaries, making healthy decisions, managing stress and anxiety. As a person begins to have a healthier relationship with themselves, it allows them to take ownership of their life and manage it more productively. "
