My goal is to help you manage the role of parenting in a supportive and non-judgmental environment, develop a more balanced family life and address emotional and behavioral concerns within your home. I am able to work with the individuals in your family as well as your family as a whole. In my work, I take a direct yet affirming approach in addressing complex emotional and behavioral concerns. I especially enjoy engaging families in developing effective communication and behavior management skills.
Whether you are the parent of a new child or a young adult, parenting is the most challenging and most rewarding role you take on everyday. If you find that you or your child/adolescent is in need of help Mindful Families is here.
I have extensive experience in working with youth within a variety of emotional and behavioral concerns. I have worked in a variety of settings including residential treatment, day treatment, in-home therapy and outpatient practice. I specialize in working with young people with self-injurious and suicidal behaviors.

Mindful Mondays for Moms
Motherhood is a big transition. Mindfulness can help. Whether you’re a brand new mom or you’ve been at this a while, you know how it feels to juggle weighty emotions and responsibilities at this time of life. Mindfulness is the practice of intentionally focusing on the present moment, paying attention to thoughts and feelings without judging them. Join us every other Monday for an evening of developing and practicing Mindfulness. The hour will begin and end with breathwork, intentional relaxation, and Mindfulness skill building. Appropriate for any mother at any point from pregnancy and beyond.
