I am currently available for couples, families and children. I specialize in work with children/families. I take a compassionate approach to therapy and see the process as collaborative. I like to work WITH my clients in a way that is true to their needs and hopes for their life. I love to listen to your stories and uncover the ways in which there is strength and resilience. We can work together to figure out what is right for YOUR family and relationships.
I am currently working on my second Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy, which means I am working towards required clinical hours needed for my licensure. This keeps costs low! I also hold a Masters in Family Science and a Bachelors in Psychology. I have been working with families in a variety of settings for over 13 years.
My hope is to take an “affectionate notice of your world.” - (Dr. Sanni Paljakka)
