I specialize in helping children, teens, and their families navigate life’s challenges with compassion, creativity, and connection. With over 15 years of experience, I bring a trauma-informed, developmentally appropriate approach to supporting emotional and behavioral growth in young clients.
I work closely with parents and caregivers as partners in the healing process. Whether you're facing anxiety, trauma, emotional dysregulation, attachment concerns, or behavioral struggles, I provide support and strategies tailored to your child's unique needs. I believe in nurturing the whole family system to foster lasting change.
I am a Registered Play Therapist, TBRI (Trust-Based Relational Intervention) Practitioner, and Certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). These approaches allow me to meet children, teens, adults, and families where they are—using play, attachment, and evidence-based tools to help them feel safe, understood, and empowered.
If you're looking for a therapist who blends clinical expertise with warmth and creativity, I’d be honored to support your family’s journey. Let's work together to create a path forward filled with hope, healing, and resilience.
