With passion and care I help clients navigate emotional obstacles. I treat individuals struggling with personal issues which stop them from reaching their full potential. Understanding emotional boundaries, not owning others issues and accepting the fact that the more true we are to our own truth the happier we are regardless of our circumstances are foundational in my practice. I truly believe in each person's ability to grow and reach for joy and fulfillment.

When our children's hearts have been broken, our hearts break, too. Parents often struggle with knowing how to care for a hurting child. The child's behaviors can be challenging. A parent's own unhealed wounds get triggered. Then, there's the parenting guilt! It can be overwhelming. We understand and we are here to help.

Our passion is supporting parents to teach them how to dissolve tantrums, manage their impulses and help their children follow instructions quickly and happily?

Parent learn a set of play therapy skills and behavior therapy skills that can bring warmth and peace back to the home. Foster, adoptive and LGBTQ+ families are welcomed and celebrated.

Initial encounters with anyone involve presenting stories of who we are. However, sometimes life makes it difficult to really tell our true stories.

Note: Emails receive a quicker response. Awareness allows for change. This is a phrase I have coined that you will hear from me often. Let's discuss this topic together. When we achieve awareness within ourselves, awareness of our environment, and awareness of our patterns of thought and behaviors - that's when positive changes can start to happen. One of the most important things that therapy can help you to achieve is awareness. As your therapist, I will be an additional resource for you as you endeavor to explore the areas of your life that need your energy and attention.

Do you ever feel nervous, hesitant, or ashamed to talk about uncomfortable thoughts, behaviors, and emotions? Have you ever needed someone to vent to about anything and were too embarrassed to say exactly what you are thinking?

I believe in the power of self-discovery and self-acceptance, and I work collaboratively with my clients to facilitate personal growth and positive change.
