Kids love counseling when it is geared to their interests and developmental level. As a certified child-centered play therapist, I specialize in providing mental health counseling to children with a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges. Child-centered play therapy is a powerful, evidence-based approach that is developmentally appropriate for children ages 2 to 10. Using the therapeutic powers of play, I help children explore emotions and process experiences in ways that offer hope and healing. I offer caregivers support through regular consultations, encouraging them to play an active role in the play therapy process.

Through all of life’s challenges, sometimes we just need a safe and confidential space to process emotions and relationships as we navigate life’s complexities.

I have over 10 years of experience providing both long term and short-term individual, couple, and family therapy for all ages.

People seek therapy because of the challenges that come to them through times of transition. If you want to focus on healing without having to worry about a third party monitoring your personal struggles and demanding a diagnosis, I am happy to partner with you directly, creating terms that we negotiate together.

Becoming the fullest expression of yourself is a worthwhile and deeply personal task, not to be compromised by political systems.

Change is a phenomenon that we all face. We will repeat painful patterns over and over in effort to avoid change.

Therapy is about change. Your goal might be personal growth, working on a relationship(s) in which you are struggling or to figure out how to manage feelings of depression, anxiety or some other emotionally painful experience. My approach is to help you explore the factors that contribute to what you are experiencing and help you create positive and useful meaning and understanding from the process. I believe that this understanding helps you to be clear about what you want in life and to make choices that help you to feel better, reach your goals and enjoy fulfillment and success.
