I work with parents, children, teens, college students, and women experiencing difficulties in a range of issues including depression, anxiety, post partum depression, PTSD, sexual abuse, domestic violence, behavioral issues, bullying, sibling rivalry, and grief.
It’s hard to be vulnerable. Especially with someone you don’t know. I work hard to establish a therapeutic relationship built on trust. I provide a holistic approach exploring all parts of a person’s past and current circumstances so that the process can help in giving insight for healing and growth.

I work with adults, adolescents and parents focusing on ways to rebuild connection & relationship with their child.
People seek out therapy often feeling defeated and at a loss for how to move forward. Many tend to get stuck in old patterns of thoughts, feelings & behaviors they cannot seem to shake. I focus on using person-centered therapy, which allows you to dive deeper into your internal world, helping you to make better sense of yourself. Therapy has the potential to enhance your self-awareness so that you can figure out new and creative ways of being in your life.

Along the road, we all developed temporary tools to solve the problems in our lives. Unfortunately, we often forgot to stop using those tools, and they became "permanent." In the end, using the wrong tool to solve a problem does not make one's life better, only worse. In therapy, I work with adolescents and adults to re-tool and get more of what they want out of life. Let's get started!

Furthermore, we can work together to develop coping skills and tools to manage day-to-day life.

Going into this new school year, you want to feel confident that your child will find their way through the struggles, that they will flourish and thrive. Maybe you feel worried or have no idea where to start, but just know that your child may need some extra support. Watching your child navigate through a storm of intense emotions can be challenging, as it seems they are facing battles that aren't always visible or easy to understand. Despite the challenges, your deepest desire is for your child to know they are cherished, resilient, and capable of handling their big feelings.
