"Children do not behave in a vacuum. Therefore it is important to address all areas of a child's life in order to effectively change behavior. In addition to individual counseling, I also actively involve parents and/other caregivers in the child's treatment. Schools also play an important role in a child's behavioral success. As a team, the child, parents, school professionals and myself can determine the best behavioral and educational options to ensure a continuity of treatment across settings. I can also reach out to community resources that are important in your child's life to coordinate pastoral care or psychoeducation."

"I like clients that are unique, meaning I enjoy people's differences. I tend to create the treatment plan around the client and their needs rather than a cookie cutter type of treatment plan. I work with a wide range of clients from children and adolescents to couples therapy."

"I believe we all have an inner wisdom calling to us, asking us to pay attention. Sometimes this shows up as anxiety, depression, pain, exhaustion, anger, relationship struggles, frustration, and fear. When these visitors appear, they can overwhelm our ability to cope with everyday life. Caught in the struggle, it can be difficult to find our way through, to listen and understand what this wisdom is trying to tell us. In our sessions, I offer non-judgmental attention, presence, creativity, and intuitive curiosity - creating a relationship that allows my clients to discover their innate ability to grow and find healing."

"I believe every woman, man and child has infinite value and worth. Whether we have experienced feelings of worthlessness because of our own actions or because of the actions of others, developing self-love is the pathway toward true joy. When we experience trauma, we develop false ideas about ourselves and the world that keep us in a place of fear, anger, and hopelessness. We make decisions based on those beliefs that cause ourselves and others despair. When we learn to love ourselves completely, we can find true healing within ourselves and the world in a deeply powerful way."

"Over the last 11 years, I have had the privilege of working with great people in helping them achieve their potential. I focus especially on creating healthy relationships within the family environment, and teaching children positive self esteem and respect for themselves and others. I apply positive psychology and strength-based training to increase the abilities and desires of youth to succeed and improve performance at home and at school. I have tremendous respect for the notion that no one is great at everything, but through hard work everyone can be great at something."

"I specialize in working with clients who struggle with addictions, anger, anxiety, bipolar, depression, emotional abuse, identity issues, personality disorders, physical abuse, postpartum depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, self-harm, sexual abuse, sexual orientation, substance abuse, suicide prevention and trauma.

"Through my years of clinical practice, professional training & personal experience, my greatest strength is my belief that people can overcome life's greatest challenges and create new opportunities as a result of these challenges.

""It is not uncommon to feel alone in our challenges, I believe it is important for us to feel that we are Not alone." I love the opportunity to help those individuals and their family members who are ready for change, whether that be in day to day living, problem solving, thinking patterns, relationships, resurfacing memories, repetitive behaviors, anger or mood imbalance. I have been a practicing therapist since 2004 and have treated multiple types of anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment issues, abuse/neglect, PTSD and other mood and behavioral disorders in all ages.

"There are many situations in life that provide trials and discomfort. Therapy is a neutral place to learn skills to navigate trials and face them with a mindset of personal growth. Every problem presents an opportunity for growth and resiliency. I believe in finding success by starting small and setting goals. There is a process in recognizing that your success is not always going to look like someone else's success."

"Beyond my professional training and experience, perhaps my greatest strength is my unwavering belief in people and their ability to improve upon their circumstances and overcome the most difficult challenges we face in life. I work with amazing people and love what I do."

"I believe people are capable of overcoming the challenges they face in life when they have support from a therapist who draws from their core values and strengths. I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, and self-harm/suicidal ideation. I am passionate about treating individuals who are working to overcome eating disorders. There is an enormous amount of pressure in society to be perfect, this greatly intensifies symptoms that can be improved with support. Empowering others and watching the process of awareness and recovery has been a rewarding and humbling experience."

"Life is beautiful and we are capable of exploring all aspects of it: the good and the difficult. Both things are necessary to become a strong and better "us"! Though there is so much good, life also comes with unanticipated 'rocks in our backpack'. This can leave us confused, hurt, and feeling displaced. Effective therapy is about several factors: experience, expertise, a clear diagnosis, concise and appropriate goals, and the tools needed to effectively navigate difficulty along the journey of life."

"Each of us experiences times when life is not as joyful as it used to be, or perhaps we feel as if we are spirling out of control. Therapy can help with a renewed sense of balance and empowerment, leading to a joyful life. In my practice I help those looking for peace and balance, joy and hope."

"My ideal client would be someone who is willing to acknowledge the need for help and growth in their life. The client will be willing to work hard and get through the situation instead of getting over the situation. The client will want to learn about all aspects of themselves and that getting there will be a journey that they will always remember."
