As a therapist and current school counselor, I have extensive experience supporting children and adolescents through a wide range of challenges. Working in schools has given me firsthand insight into the academic, social, emotional, and family stressors that young people face every day. I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate friendships, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, behavioral challenges, family changes, and the pressures that come with growing up. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where children and teens feel genuinely heard, understood, and valued.
I utilize a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Person-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I tailor treatment to each client's unique needs, helping identify strengths, build healthy coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and work toward meaningful goals.
Whether your child is struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, self-esteem, school-related concerns, or life transitions, I am committed to partnering with them—and their family—to foster growth, resilience, and lasting positive change. Together, we can create a path forward that helps your child feel empowered, confident, and capable.

I work with children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress related to family, school, and peer relationships. In early sessions, we explore concerns and strengths and collaborate on a treatment plan. I use CBT, DBT-informed, person-centered, Play Therapy, and solution-focused approaches to build coping skills, emotional regulation, and confidence.
