In the first half of my career, I wrote and work with parents of children and adolescents.
I am strong in treating people with depression, OCD and anxiety issues. That being said, my true expertise is in the area of alcohol and addiction therapies. I am a recovering alcoholic and love educating folks on the principles of addiction and recovery. I've even had the fascinating experience of leading drug and alcohol group therapy for inmates at San Quentin State Prison. I believe there is no distinction between the many forms of addiction: alcohol, drugs, sex, internet porn, eating, working, video games, social media or gambling"¦all of these are triggered by the same things: fear, stress, and anxiety. And ALL are treatable.

Being a child or teen right now is hard, with a lot of pressure and emotions dealing with school, friendships, social media, family, and their future. Supporting and helping our children navigate all of these factors, along with the new things that seem to pop up every day is stressful. In my opinion everyone can use therapy to learn skills to manage our emotions. My aim is to create a safe place for children to open up and learn tools to better manage their emotions and behaviors, and improve self-esteem. I strive to always provide a warm space, where you and your child feel safe to be vulnerable and work towards your goals.

Therapy was there for me as a child, teenager and even now as an adult through life most simple to most complex challenges.
I tend to work usually within a humanistic client-centered approach, where I accept the client for who they are and what they're bringing to session, and we work together to solve/address concerns. Depending on client's concerns, I will utilize different techniques (eclecticism therapy) such as CBT to art therapy to psychodynamic because honestly each person unique without a "one size fits all". I specialize in general mental health, men's issues, adolescent development, depressive symptoms/issues, BIPOC concerns, substance use, LGBTQIA concerns.

It’s my joy to help parents feel less overwhelmed and more confident throughout the teenage years.
Do you have a teen that struggles with anxiety or self-esteem? You only want the best for your child, so it’s heartbreaking to see them have difficulties with their friendships, school, or even enjoying their usual hobbies. Or, perhaps your family has gone through some recent life transitions, and your teen is still adjusting to those changes. Through therapy, my goal is to give your teenager a space for them to freely express themselves, discover their strengths, and know that they don’t have to go through their struggles alone.

I offer a safe, collaborative approach to supporting adults, teens & children.
Sometimes life throws us situations we never imagined for ourselves. The death of a parent, spouse, or best friend. Frequent calls from your child’s teacher about their “bad behavior." A surprise announcement from your teen that they’re not comfortable in the gender you always thought they were. You’re not alone, and you or your child don’t have to go through these experiences alone, either. Together, we’ll find ways to cope with the days where it feels too hard to get out of bed, to explore what feelings are coming up when you’re crying alone in the shower, or to come up with strategies to see the “good” in your child.
