You are unique in all the world! There is no one just like you with your story or life. Your family, pets, friends, community--where you came from--what you have overcome and endured-all these make you the unique person you are. At some time you may wish to turn the page on your story. My therapy involves walking with you while you decide where you want to go from here--who the person is that you want to be--how you want your life and story to change. I will listen and challenge, support and invite you to learn new skills and growth.

Everyone has a story as well as a perspective about their issues. I consider it important not only to listen to what a person says, but does not say.

Children who experience trauma are at risk of many behavioral, social and academic problems. My job is to help them navigate and process their experiences.
