I feel that creating a warm and compassionate environment where people are able to feel safe expressing their true selves needs to be a priority in order for individuals to reach their therapeutic goals. I will work with you to improve coping skills and gain insight into the areas of your life you are struggling with. I have worked as a mental health therapist in various settings such as community, residential, intensive outpatient, and correctional facilities. I have treated diverse populations with a variety of concerns, including those with co-occurring disorders.

The better we know ourselves, the more we can choose what we want for our lives. I invite you into a trusting relationship and a space that is uniquely your own, where you feel safe and free from judgment to explore the concerns you are carrying and the pain you have experienced. We are never stuck in our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. With compassion and personal insight, you can work through unwanted patterns, faulty belief systems, and past psychological wounds and develop skills to face life's challenges.

My primary focus is working with children and adolescents who are struggling with family discord, parent separation and/or divorce. Since 1996 I have been working within the school system, consulting for an adolescent residential/outpatient therapeutic treatment facility and in private practice. I work with children, adolescents, and their families to improve their skills navigating through life's challenges, transitions, and daily stressors. I also assist people who are feeling depressed, sad, anxious, or dealing with general relationship concerns. Together we develop skills to increase self esteem and coping abilities to promote resilient individuals and more communicative families.

My greatest passion in life is helping children, adolescents, and young adults navigate their own therapeutic journey. As a neurodiversity affirming therapist, I focus less on problematic behaviors and more on identifying unmet needs and lagging skills. I am strong believer that children are not intentionally giving their parents/teachers/caregivers a hard time, but rather they are having a hard time. As Dr. Ross Green states, "kids do well if they can."

Sometimes, just getting through the day can be very hard. There are so many roles that we play: Perhaps we are working, studying, parenting, teaching, coaching, not to mention shopping, cooking, maintaining a household, sharing life with someone and trying our best to do it all. Am I talking about you?

Are you experiencing challenging times? Do you feel stuck, sad, overwhelmed, or anxious? Do you feel like you need a space to process your thoughts and feelings? Working together, I can help you develop effective coping skills, improve your ability to communicate feelings and needs, and increase insight into your behavior. This will help strengthen your self-love and self-care. Through utilizing an approach centered around encouragement and support, I will help you explore the connection between your past and current experiences, environment, and/or behaviors that might be hindering you from reaching your fullest potential.

Life comes with many complex challenges. Sometimes we feel alone or inadequate and experience difficulty being fully authentic with others. Often, we lack the necessary support, or open ourselves up to being hurt by others. Mental health is strongly influenced by our ability to get our needs met. Psychotherapy is a process where we take a close look at your needs, including the thoughts and feelings you have when you feel stuck. By identifying, fleshing out and contextualizing your reactions, we gain a deeper and nuanced understanding of you. This process will help you find freedom of choice and greater fulfillment.

Therapy is often about change - changing oneself or parts of one's life. Taking steps towards change requires tremendous courage, but many people find the rewards of this process well worth the effort. A supportive, helpful guide can go a long way towards making productive changes and that is where I come in. Support is my primary role; my secondary role is to help individuals identify thoughts or behaviors that are limiting progress in one's life. In addition to helping with a wide range of common symptoms like stress, anxiety, depression, I specialize in health psychology (coping with illness).
