I work with children and their caregivers around issues related to anxiety, depression, life adjustments/transitions, relational problems, behavioral concerns, school difficulties, grief/loss, self esteem, parenting challenges, and family conflict. I enjoy helping children gain insight into their experiences through psychodynamic play therapy and supporting parents' understanding of their child's emotional needs and behaviors. We all internalize our early experiences, and it has an impact on how we parent and relate to our children. When we are triggered from our own past, it can disrupt our ability to connect with our children.

My specialties include working with adults, parents, teens, and children with anxiety, depression, and trauma.
Accepting New Clients. I believe growth and healing is a natural part of life. I understand that growing up or navigating life can feel complicated and confusing, especially when we don't understand what we are feeling or why we are acting in certain ways. We can get discouraged or overwhelmed. I help children and adults move past the experiences and internalized messages that can leave us feeling stuck, confused, or unsure. We can work together to help you/your child get back to- or perhaps discover for the first time- that place of curiosity, safety, and genuineness that lives inside.

I have a special interest in working with children and adults with emotional issues such as anxiety, attachment, trauma, and adjustment issues.
People seek counseling for a myriad of reasons. Regardless of what has led you to this path, I believe that the insights you gain through counseling can result in an increased understanding of yourself. Counseling is a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings and allows you the opportunity to develop and practice new ways of viewing yourself and others. I believe that no one person exists as an isolated individual. The work that occurs in counseling results in changes not only to yourself, but your relationships with others.

Either way, counseling can help by providing a safe, trusted space to seek solutions, growth, and healing.

Choosing the right therapist can be a difficult decision; especially when they're working so closely with you or your child. You want someone who listens, understands and hears your concerns but is also supportive and nurturing. Let me begin by stating that I provide a safe environment where I incorporate empathy, encouragement, and laughter as part of the therapy process. But most importantly I believe in building a relationship with every person is the key to the healing process.
