"I am a clinical social worker and a registered play therapist with extensive experience and training working with individuals, children, and families. I have received specialized post-graduate training in order to become a registered play therapist and know this approach to be a powerful way for children to process their experiences and feelings in a way that is developmentally appropriate and natural for them."

"My counseling approach is tailored to parents who have children, adolescents, or young adults with ASD or special needs. I also provide counseling needs to relatives of the family such as siblings, grandparents, or anyone closely involved with the child's or adolescent's life. However, I also counsels those with general mental health concerns."

"Had life been enjoyable? Then a trauma shattered your lifestyle. Have you found the safe and restful place to heal your hidden wounds? Trauma can leave one feeling unsafe when invaded externally or internally. Have the wounds prevented bouncing back to ones prior wholeness? Trauma affects ways information is processed. This forced change has disrupted your dream(s). One task of healing is to distinguish a perceived threat from real threat in order to feel safe."

"My ideal client is motivated to change and desires to have a better quality of life. I love to see my clients grow and be excited for life! I do not milk the counseling process and I do not hurry it either. I am a straight shooter and I do not hide my thoughts from you. I am a counselor because I truly love to help people spiritually, mentally, and physically."

"As a therapist, I believe that it is important to tailor the treatment to the client and I strive to find the treatment that works best for each of my clients. I have over fifteen years of clinical experience and have worked with rape and incest survivors, domestic violence victims, at risk youth, and those struggling with mood disorders, autism spectrum disorder, and anxiety. I have worked with the LGBTQ community and I enjoy working with people who feel like they don't fit in. I practice using cognitive behavioral therapeutic techniques and and creative therapies."
