I provide individual and family-focused therapeutic services for children, adolescents, young adults, and parents. My strength-based approach is based on a belief that we all, young and old, have the internal resources to meet challenges, although sometimes we need support to discover, access, and develop those resources. I work with children and youth who may need support navigating relationships, coping with anxiety or depression, or who are having trouble balancing the demands of everyday life.

You are facing a significant life challenge. Maybe it's the death of an important person, or the end of a relationship, or simply a natural life change. Possibly it is another type of challenge, such as recovery from addiction or trauma. Maybe your child is experiencing their own difficulties and you want to help them, but you aren't sure how. You have questions and concerns: Is what I'm feeling ok? How do I best help and support myself and/or my child? How will I re-make my life? What does healing mean to me ... and who am I as I undertake that process? Your questions are valid, and exploring them could be helpful.

My approach involves bringing change about from the inside out. We will work towards understanding how the problems that brought you here developed, what they mean, and the purpose that they serve. This approach goes beyond simply treating symptoms and strives to help you make changes that are deeply-rooted and long-lasting. It has been proven that the therapeutic relationship actually creates healthier connections in your brain. In younger children this deeper type of therapeutic change is often accomplished through therapeutic play. Play is the natural language of children and allows them to express their thoughts and feelings.
