Every child, teen, and young adult carries a story—and sometimes that story includes moments that feel overwhelming, confusing, or too heavy to carry alone. My role as a therapist is to walk beside you or your child, creating space for safety, understanding, and hope to grow. I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, and young adults as they navigate trauma, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and life transitions through EMDR, CBT, and DBT. Together, we build a collaborative, compassionate environment where healing unfolds at a pace that respects each person’s unique story, strengths, and journey.
Specialties:
- Trauma and PTSD
- Anxiety and Depression
- Emotional Regulation and Distress Tolerance
- Family and Parent Support
- School Stress, Peer Conflict, and Adjustment
- Self-Esteem and Identity Development
My approach is gentle, relational, and evidence-based. I meet clients with curiosity, warmth, and respect, helping build resilience, balance, and connection. I support healing, healthier thought patterns, and emotional growth. Collaboration is key—working with families, schools, and support systems to foster shared understanding and lasting change.
