I support children and caregivers as a mental health counselor and Certified Synergetic Play Therapist working alongside children and families. My professional background is in education, community programs, and counseling. I worked in public education for 12 years including serving as a school counselor. I utilize play therapy and creative expressive arts to support individuals on their journey of growth and healing. I enjoy providing parents and caregivers resources and tools to support their own regulation within challenging moments. I am committed to authenticity and empowerment and this is reflective in my work.
I have experience addressing a variety of concerns children may experience, including grief/loss, school anxiety, adoption, trauma, self-esteem, behavior, anger, relationship concerns, and developmental concerns. My style of counseling is that I aim to create a trusting and safe space for children to heal from within and connect with their authentic self.
With the understanding that each child is unique, I utilize the therapeutic powers of play to help children feel capable and know they matter. If you would like to explore whether I may be a good fit for your child, please reach out for a free 15 minute consultation.
