Over the last year I have diversified my experience with children and adolescents ages 8-18.
There is not an ideal patient for me. I meet the person where they are at financially, emotionally, physically and socially to review needs, goals and expectations of therapy. I feel this is an integrative approach that gives the patient to steering wheel and I am the merely the GPS guide to their overall life goals.

child-centered play therapy, animal assisted therapy, and cognitive behavioral theory, I collaborate with the client on how to recognize that thoughts can change their feelings and actions in various situations which can then induce adverse behaviors and body sensations.

Through the past 15 years, working with children and families through the fields of education and ministry, I have discovered that individuals and families are unique, but often have a common goal of health.
Journeying this life can bring challenges and trials that could be eased or comforted through self-discovery, self-compassion, reaching personal goals, and strengthened relationships. I would be honored to walk alongside you, and/or your family, as you strive to be your best self, whether that be through healing and restoration, or through the development of boundaries and inner strength. Counseling brings an environment where you are accepted for who you are and where you are. It is my desire to create a safe place for you to explore your healing without judgment but through therapeutic connection and an abundance of compassion.

My therapeutic philosophy involves utilizing a holistic approach incorporating Gestalt and Adlerian therapies. As a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in athletes, children, adolescents, and young adults, I frequently work with clients experiencing issues related to poor sport or school performance, life changes during adolescence, life transitioning from college to career, parenting issues, sibling relationships, and divorce family transitioning. Topical issues may include low self-esteem , ADHD, transitioning from athletic identity, peer relationships, anger management, self-mutilation, eating disorders, and self-empowerment. A fundamental element in my approach is establishing the therapeutic relationship through rapport and building trust between the client and the therapist.
