My practice primarily centers around individuals suffering from anxiety. This can be children struggling to manage changes in their lives, teens overwhelmed with the pressure they are experiencing, or adults struggling to balance responsibilities.

I am trained in trauma and attachment and see children, teens, and adults struggling with these issues. As a trained play therapist, I employ aspects of play therapy with all clients.

Sometimes childhood is interrupted by crisis—feelings and situations too big for children, teens and families to deal with on their own. Often children (especially teens) express their sadness, fear and anger through their behaviors and attitude. This "acting out" is especially challenging to caregivers. Child Saving Institute (CSI) offers comprehensive mental health services including pediatric, adolescent and family therapy alongside psychiatric evaluations and medication management services to children, teens and young adults.

How often do we remain stuck in the same patterns that result in continued frustration, discouragement, and overwhelm? We may have tried over and over, to stick to a "better lifestyle plan" and yet continue to stay stuck. I see you. I recognize the difficulty in taking steps forward, while still experiencing the doubts and struggles, of living with a mental health condition. I believe we all have the power to heal ourselves. It doesn't matter what struggles we face, our mind and our body intuitively know what is best for us, in our healing journey. If given the chance, it is possible to evolve into that which we were created.

Trauma affects all of us at some point in our lives. This may be in the form of a significant event or the accumulation of stressors over the course of time. Eventually, you may notice symptoms such as increased irritability, decreased motivation, or even numbness. By reconnecting the body and brain, we can harness emotional responses and get you back to feeling like "you" again.

I definitely understand that reaching out for therapy can cause anxious uncertainty and emotional discomfort. If this is the case, I'm SO GLAD you are making this courageous decision. Regarding my personality and therapeutic style, you will notice this immediately: I am warm, genuine, personable, light-hearted, and easy to connect with. You will also notice I am passionate about understanding your unique life story, including the personal struggles for which you are seeking professional care. I desire to relate to you as an equal, whole person rather than someone who "has all the answers." In sessions with me, you will know I care.
