My areas of specialty are trauma and attachment focused therapy work with children and teens who have experienced abuse, neglect, and abandonment.
I am a Registered, Board Certified Art Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor who believes in the power of art to transform and heal. I like to create a comfortable environment for children, teens, adults and families to work on change. I offer creative arts therapies including art therapy, sand tray, and play techniques to help them overcome challenges. In sessions, you will see how art can provide a way to express your inner most feelings when words sometimes fail you. Once the words have been spoken then it is often easier to address the deeper issues and conflicts.

When working with children and adolescents, I encourage parents to learn to work and communicate with their child or teen.
I work with individuals, couples and families. It doesn't matter how many people are sitting in the office, I view each individual within the context of the systems they live in each day. We are all part of many systems, marital, family, school, community, work. The relationships and importance each of these systems place on individuals can sometimes can lead to breakdowns in communication and mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety. Treating the dysfunction in the relationship often restores the feeling of wholeness in an individual and of course leads to stronger deeper relationships between individuals.

At Cycle Breakers, we understand that raising a child or teen is hard these days. Kids are facing enormous challenges and can easily struggle with a variety of emotional, behavioral, or social problems. Parents worry about their children's well-being and want the best for them. It's painful to feel like you are watching them struggle and don't know what to do to help them. Sometimes, parents feel like they are working hard to do better than their own parents, yet feel confused about what that actually looks like. Sometimes, parents feel surprised about what gets triggered from their own histories or childhoods and powerless to cope.

They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
