Children, teens and families are our passion and describe our ideal clientele. Your parenting instincts tell you something has changed with your child. You wonder is it something with school, friends, or a stressor that you have no idea about. Perhaps, your family unit has gone through major change or loss. Your desire is to have your child be back to their best self. You've tried everything you can think of in your parenting arsenal; long talks, together time, consequences and for some reason the issue is still there. As parents we don't always have all the answers and it is ok to reach out for help!

Hello and welcome! I'm passionate about helping children and their families restore and rebuild the peace they’ve lost in their lives. I believe humans are designed to be intimately connected with others in loving and secure relationships. Therefore, when that connection and safety becomes absent or broken due to the difficulties of “life,” emotional pain and behavioral issues often arise that are difficult to navigate alone. My focus is on providing individuals (ages 3-25) with the tools they need to overcome their inner struggles, navigate the challenges of life, and develop resiliency for their future.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with dual master's degrees in Social Work and Criminology. I believe in providing a non-judgmental and conversational atmosphere with an open and honest dialogue. I have extensive history working with teens and adults. I typically work with individuals experiencing school/work stress, marriage or family difficulties, poor communication, lifestyle transitions, adjusting to college, or graduating college. Discussing topics you don't feel comfortable talking about with others can be difficult. I am here to support, empower, and assist you in overcoming obstacles to become your true self.

Are you nervous, having panic attacks, shortness of breath, or maybe your heart is racing and you can't explain it; it could potentially be anxiety.

Maybe your family is telling you you are addicted to or abusing alcohol or drugs, but you don't know what else to do. Some people don't understand what is happening to their body and are fearful of where to go or how to get help.
