As an attachment-focused child therapist, I work primarily with children and young adults with their parents. Many feel stuck in a negative pattern of conflict, defiance, and anger. My focus is promoting change through playful, accepting, reciprocal connections between caregivers and children. I am a TBRI Practitioner, trained in DDP, EMDR levels 1 and am a Certified Autism Professional. I also have advanced training in working with ADHD and am completing my DBT training. I love the challenge of high-conflict families and adoption trauma, and I use a playful, engaged presence, movement and play for a bottom-up approach to healing.
I enjoy coaching parents in new ways of understanding themselves and being with their children that promote connection and growth. By exploring the barriers to these connections and instilling hope for something different, we can begin to create lasting connections and healing in children that result in decreased acting out and decreased conflict.
I have years of experience working with children who have attachment insecurity or display behaviors related to early trauma, anxiety, depression, ASD, ADHD or sensory processing disorder. I am also a parent of five and an adoptive mom who enjoys coming alongside families and assist them in deepening connections and experiencing healing so they can thrive!
