My ideal client is seeking what the mind and body are seeking-a benign state. We are all seeking freedom in some form, from physical to emotional to behavioral; my clients all seek the sense of agency from the negative loops that keep them down.
As a neurodivergent clinician, I am skilled in strengths based and trauma responsive care. I am also trained in Child Centered Play Therapy and eco-therapy. I believe that the most direct, tangible way to connect with something bigger than ourselves is found in nature. I am proud to work for a community based non-profit just a block from Birchlake in WBL!
If you are looking to disrupt negative loops through practical interventions or if your child needs a space to learn an emotional vocabulary and to self-actualize, I am at NYFS' White Bear Lake clinic and see clients of all ages.

Therapy with me will be person centered as I believe change, just like self-actualization comes from within the client. I believe that anxiety is energy and can become our ally with somatic exercises. Having lived with progressive condition since I was ten, I can help clients living with a chronic illness navigate with school, work and life transitions.
