Sometimes it is hard to ask for help. During our lives, we all reach the point where the stress becomes too much. One way to address that is by finding a supportive person to help. I aim to be that supportive person for you. I have been working with children ranging from 7-17, parents, adults, and families since 2007. I have taken time to raise my own children. I recognize the stress of balancing family, work, and personal lives. It is my goal to help you develop your strengths and coping skills to navigate life when it feels like too much. I have experience in helping families navigate difficult parent/child interactions.
I like to utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Treatment, but also understand that one method doesn’t work for every person. There is benefit to acknowledging where we have come from and experiences that have brought us to where we are, as well as looking forward to who we want to be. I aim to make my sessions a safe place for you.
It is exciting for me to see people grow and flourish in their lives. Over time, I get to see peoples’ stories change from overwhelming, threatening, and sometimes unbearable to exciting, meaningful, and in control. If I get to see someone walk out of my office feeling more confident and empowered, than I have succeeded for that day.
