For over 25 years as a clinician I remain passionate in helping children, adolescents and families who are struggling with emotional issues and challenges. I provide services for a variety of issues for children and teens ages 3-18. My patient and compassionate approach promotes healing and positive changes. I utilize a strength based treatment to empower children and teens to be successful and emotionally stable. I establish positive relationships with my clients, even those who are initially resistant to therapy. I follow their lead, knowing that establishing trust is the first step in the therapeutic process.
Treatment includes play therapy and other approaches that are individualized for each child or teen. Parents are actively involved in the therapy process as we work together as a team to meet your child's treatment goals. My office is bright, welcoming and child friendly.
I assist children and teens in finding tools to promote self esteem, healing, and success. My clients look forward to their therapy sessions, knowing they are being heard and supported in a safe and nurturing environment.
