Many children and teens struggle to put their feelings into words. Instead, emotions may show up as anxiety, meltdowns, withdrawal, low self-esteem, school challenges, friendship struggles, or conflict at home. If your child is feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or misunderstood, therapy can provide a safe space to build confidence, emotional awareness, and healthy coping skills. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the effects of trauma.

Sometimes when we're going through something hard, it can feel like there's no one to talk to that gets it. Trauma, anxiety, depression, mood swings, relationship struggles and other challenges can feel too difficult to talk about with the people in our everyday lives. My passion is to help you navigate through these challenges in a way that feels safe and productive. If you or your teen is feeling lost and alone, your own personal traumatic experiences feel unmanageable, or your marriage feels stuck, I am here to walk with you through the struggle and find the light on the other side.

My approach to counseling is grounded in the belief that healing happens in the context of authentic human connection. I strive to create a space where people feel genuinely seen, respected, and understood, especially during times when life feels overwhelming, confusing, or painful. At the core of my work is a deep respect for each person’s story and the understanding that meaningful change often begins when someone feels safe enough to explore that story openly.

My ideal client is someone who is struggling from anxiety, depression, and/or the effects of past trauma. I work best with clients who are open to accepting their own responsibility to change, and are ready to recover control of their own life from the things which have held them back from how they want to live. I have a special passion and training to work with those who have undergone spiritual abuse/trauma, which is any harmful use of power and control experienced within a faith tradition. If you're recovering from this, or just want to sort out what you believe and why without judgment, I would love to help!

Suicidal Ideation Therapists
How does therapy for suicidal ideation work?
Stress, depression, anxiety, or upsetting circumstances can give rise to suicidal thinking. Therapy can address the events at the core of an individual’s suffering. Understanding why a person may be suicidal can help the therapist and the patient discover alternative methods of coping. A person with suicidal ideation may be mired in catastrophic thinking, and treatment like cognitive behavioral therapy is a good choice for breaking such patterns. In addition, treatment such as acceptance and commitment therapy can help a person manage their distress through better emotion regulation.

Which therapies are best for suicidal ideation?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, acceptance and commitment therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are two widely used therapies that can help individuals with painful thoughts and past traumas. These therapies help an individual tolerate distress, regulate emotions, and not act on dangerous urges.

Are there specific medications to be combined with therapy?
The use of medication for suicidal thoughts must be aligned with the underlying cause; conditions such as depression, anxiety, and psychosis may be at the root of suicidal ideation. A psychiatrist may prescribe medications for symptoms, which may include antipsychotics such as aripiprazole or antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

How often and how long are therapy sessions for suicidal ideation?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Patients may see improvement within 15 to 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, while others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, perhaps, a six-month period. Still other patients, especially those with co-occurring conditions like major depression and anxiety, may need to continue sessions for up to 12 to 18 months. In some cases, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm.
