Why the name Pink House Counseling? I have worked with children and families for over a decade. I was working with a neuro divergent kiddo who saw lots of different therapists, a speech therapist, occupational therapists, etc. I had a pink dollhouse in my office, and I was dubbed the "pink house counselor." What creativity on their part! I love working with kids and am passionate about creating a safe, warm, and empathetic environment where we can work on struggles in school, parent child relationships, behaviors, early child childhood trauma, grief and loss, or anxiety and depression; and parents we won't leave you out!
You know that voice in your head, your own inner critic? I help adults heal so the voice your children hear is empowered and strong. I promote parent child relationships to be present for your child's exploration, development, and challenges with a curious, attached open mind. And the best part is I use evidenced based models and practices that work!
On a personal note, I'm a mom, which is life changing and enriching. I love working with kids, they inspire me to be better every day. When I'm not working my husband and I are enjoying time with our son and our cat and two dogs- keeping up with their hair is the bane of my existence.
