Many of my clients have struggled with various forms of anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions and past trauma. Many of my clients have been women of color navigating challenges with family, work, grief, parenting and relationships, while attempting to cope with the stressors that come with these roles. Often, these clients are attempting to be the best version of themselves, and want assistance in identifying and strengthening ways to thrive, rather than merely survive.

It's tough to be a kid or teen right now and it's tough to parent a kid or teen. The more motivated a young person and their family are to improve, the more successful we are in therapy. It will go best when everyone is (1) honest enough to really get to know themselves, (2) empathetic enough to care about the effects their choices and actions have on others, and (3) brave enough to do things differently so they can feel better, have healthier relationships, and enjoy more successes.

It's never easy asking for help, and choosing someone to help with issues as difficult as anxiety, depression, past trauma, or current relationship issues can be a stressful process in and of itself.

By asking the question, "what does better look like?", you are already on your way.

Life is full of decisions, every day is a choice. That is a mantra I have believed and lived by for many years. Sometimes the choice requires having the courage to begin again...start over...wipe the slate clean. I have made that decision myself which involved working against fear, insecurities, and many other obstacles. Life does not always give us the opportunity to make lemonade. Sometimes we have to throw away the lemons life dishes us and decide to make something new. I specialize in helping people from a variety of backgrounds with making those decisions and learning how to live with new perspectives, thoughts, and behaviors.

Hi and thanks for stopping by. We have a heart for kids that have experienced trauma and work with kids and their caregivers to process the "yucky stuff." We also work with caregivers and children to increase positive attachments and decrease negative attention seeking behaviors like angry outbursts, whining, defiance, and tantrums. We can provide coping skills and help try to re-frame thoughts of depression and anxiety.
