As a licensed clinical social worker specializing in play therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, I understand that seeking therapy—whether for yourself, your child, or your relationship—takes tremendous courage. My practice is built on creating a warm, non-judgmental environment where healing can naturally unfold.

I specialize in Play Therapy for children and CBT for couples/families. Kids express emotions through toys, drawing, and activities rather than talk therapy. I help reshape negative thought patterns and build coping skills. My warm, energetic approach creates safe spaces where children, couples, and families heal and thrive together.

You don't have to navigate this alone. Whether your child struggles with big emotions or you and your partner feel stuck in negative patterns, seeking help takes courage. I've seen families rediscover joy and couples rebuild stronger connections. You deserve hope. I'm here to walk alongside you toward healing.
