As a former foster child who entered foster care at the age of 12 and aged out, I have a passion for serving children and adolescents who have similar experiences. However, this does not limit my empathy for serving individuals and groups who are committed to improving their mental health. I am an older sister of 10 siblings (8 of them being all boys). Therefore, I have the skills, abilities, and patience to build therapeutic relationships with children and adolescents seeking to build resilience and fortitude in improving their mental health and well-being.

Every child needs a nurturing environment that allows them to grow and thrive as an adult; however, from childhood into adulthood there are times that adversity presents itself. The road can become rocky and sometimes stop with no apparent direction in which to travel. When the road is too bumpy and travel is difficult, a therapist can help by serving as guide and aid and walk with you until the road is safe again to travel on your own.
