You don’t have to accept that you’re feeling misunderstood, isolated, stuck, angry, sad, or anxious. Pain is natural, but struggle and suffering are what happens when we don’t act. My goal is to gently approach the hurdle(s) that are keeping you from fulfilling a wholesome and authentic life. I understand that throughout life, changes and events may cause emotional conflict, confusion, and feel unbearable. I believe strongly that people are very resilient, and I’m passionate about assisting individuals find their inner strength to overcome.

Welcome to Love and Grow Youth and Family Therapy, PLLC :) I specialize in helping youth, young adults, couples, and families find direction in navigating difficulties with anxiety, depression, oppositional and defiant behavior, obsessive and compulsive behavior, as well as traumatic stress. I approach therapy with genuine curiosity, humbly meeting my clients where they are, validating those life experiences that bring my clients into therapy, and learning more about the tool kits clients have used thus far to steer them through troubled waters.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in West Virginia provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.
Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time (likely in fewer than six sessions), the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.
The best child therapists in West Virginia build great relationships with the child and the parent. 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.
