Life is really rough right now in so many ways! We have never experienced anything like what we are experiencing right now. Life has been flipped upside down, anxiety is sky high, depression is increasing, relationships are suffering, and those with children are being forced to become homeschool teachers. The sense of balance in our lives has been thrown out. We feel stuck, depressed, anxious, and maybe even hopeless. It is really important to take care of yourself in this space and reach out for help, to talk things through, and figure out how to move forward in a positive direction. You don’t need to stay stuck in this space.

I’ve worked with various issues, such as developmental issues, trauma related to abuse, abuse reactive children (having experienced abuse, they began abusing others), and general adjustment issues.
Therapy can be useful to people from all walks of life. I'm here to support you. The quality of the relationship between you and your therapist is a crucial factor in any successful therapy. In-depth psychotherapy work depends upon the growth and development of a collaborative relationship, which supports your becoming aware of the formative aspects of your intellectual and emotional life. When we speak honestly, addressing our life histories and looking with courage at our life dilemmas – we improve our chances of living a satisfying and fulfilling life. This is done at your pace, and to the level you find helpful.

Growing is part of our day-to-day life. Sometimes growth can involve uncomfortable feelings and experience difficult patterns. These seasons of growth are instances in which we can blossom if provided the right tools. Using a trauma-informed, person-centered approach, I work with children and adolescents experiencing depression, anxiety, negative self-worth, and body image struggles. My goal is to cultivate a warm and compassionate space that fosters trust, creativity, and honest conversations. By working together, I hope that individuals find connection, confidence, and acceptance within themselves.

While licensed as a therapist, I find myself more often feeling like a translator. I love working with tweens and teens and the adults who love them. I easily see patterns and seek to understand the functionality of behaviors that may be causing problems in the clients life and operating from a place of curiosity and compassion, we collaborate to find alternative solutions and to help the grown-ups know best how to support their exceptional child. While I specialize in working with Neurodiverse clients, I am not treating neurodivergence. I am treating the emotional wounds and building skills to survive in a neurotypical world.

As an child & teen therapist, I use creative and emotionally based therapies to help young people discover their self-worth and potential.
I offer expressive and emotionally based therapies to children (ages 6 and older) a warm and nurturing environment which provides a safe space to do any healing they might need to do to move forward, to feel better about who they are, or share what might have happened in their lives that makes their heart ache. I help teens and young adults navigate the turbulence of hormones, and school work, friendships and home life, college and relationships, and all the other activities and significant events happening, while trying to discover who they are and what makes them feel most alive.

In our work together we will explore many of the things that may be holding you or your child back.
Things can feel off and you're not sure why. Maybe noticing your teen pulling away, shut behind a closed door. Your child changing, giving one word answers when they are usually a chatterbox. You may feel that everything is getting on your nerves, having ADHD overwhelm, or like things are in a funk. You know that something is wrong, but are stuck on how to fix it. The disconnect can get to a point where we need some support. Feeling unheard, unseen, or misunderstood can lead us to seek that help to reconnect to ourselves and our inner strengths. You can find your strengths again and use them to heal, feel better, and succeed.

If so, I would love to partner with you on your journey to overcoming these patterns that tend to be direct obstacles in feeling your best and reaching your absolute potential.

Parenting Support: Raising a child is an amazing opportunity for growth, not only for the child but for the parent as well.
As of 2/9/24 I am currently accepting children 6+, teen and adult clients via telehealth. Staying true to ourselves may be one of the hardest but most important tasks we encounter as we mature into adults. Family, social needs, achievements, anxiety, depression, and many other factors often get in the way of our ability to express ourselves in our fullest capacity. During our time in counseling, you will get to know your truest self, and practice expressing yourself authentically with curiosity and mindfulness.
