Growing as a family is hard. You want to have it all together but deep down you are struggling to feel confident or cope with the challenging experiences that have occurred in your life. Perhaps you’re a parent who is starting to catch glimpses of your own parents in yourself despite your best attempts to avoid exactly that. Maybe you and your partner keep running into the same issues again and again. Or, maybe you have a creative teen who has been struggling and it's been hard to find a therapist who they can connect with and be real. You just want some relief as you find your way through this phase in life.

My passion is to connect with kids that is more natural and comfortable. It can be hard and uncomfortable for kids to "talk" about personal and difficult emotions. Because of this, my focus is on utilizing expressive therapies to help children sort through and process emotions and events through art, playing games, structured and unstructured play, etc. all while helping them to identify their own strengths, how to use those strengths to overcome the challenges they are facing, and work toward an optimistic future!

My preferred approach with clients comes from my own experience in what really works to heal, recover, and create change. As cliché as it is, I truly believe that “we’ve got to feel it to heal it.” My approach is experiential - and emotion and attachment-focused. This really just means I think some of the best healing happens in our connection with others, starting with working on our relationship with ourselves. I also use curiosity, compassion, and an understanding that every situation is unique to create a personalized approach.

Let me help you explore and heal experiences that disrupt functioning in your daily life now. Working with kids in the foster care system I saw a continual theme. Their symptoms were about what had happened to them not their diagnosis. This drove me to explore trauma informed modalities and provide treatment for all ages who have experienced trauma. Exploring what happened as a reason behind actions and responses. I treat all ages but I have a dedicated play therapy space. Play is how kids communicate. I use an attachment focused lens. Clients most often have the solution that works for them but just need guidance to access it.

I want to be open and safe. I believe that therapy is a collaboration between two people trying to live better lives. I love to hear your stories. They inspire me. I'm amazed at the strength and survival skills of my clients. I believe that therapy should be a good experience for both of us, but sometimes reality means we'll first have to revisit the pain in order to heal. Hopefully we can to that together from a safe and secure place.

For the past 15 years, I have been blessed to help clients create a “life worth living.” I enjoy helping clients find the path to their best life as they work through life transitions, trauma, LGBTQ+, and attachment issues. I have also spent the last year getting trained to provide ketamine assisted therapy, where ketamine is coupled with therapy to provide new thought patterns which can be potentially life changing. I am also the parent of a child adopted through DCFS and intimately understand the ups and downs of attachment issues. Lastly, I am also the sibling of multiple military members and understand the culture.
