I have a passion for working with children, adolescents, and parents. Although therapy will take place in my office, I believe that guiding parents on what they can do at home to help their child is important. I strive to give my clients the coping tools they need and can use daily to help regulate emotions which will ultimately help with their behaviors. I have a special certification in AutPlay Therapy. This play therapy and behavioral therapy approach is great for clients (3-18) that struggle with regulating emotions, social skills, anxiety, impulse control, behavioral concerns, bullying, depression, and education challenges.

We all have goals, dreams, and aspirations. Sometimes it is hard to reach those goals on our own. There is nothing wrong with asking for help. I am here to serve those that are in need of behavioral services. ABA therapy is an evidence-based applied science.

Let's work together towards positive changes one step at a time.

I'm so glad you're considering taking this next step. Life is challenging and often interrupted by stress, relationship challenges, and loss. We all crave a fulfilling life that is full of hope, connection, and meaning. Relationships with a spouse, partner, child, parent, siblings, roommates, and even co-workers are central to our emotional well-being. I have advanced training in EFT which focuses on creating connections. These close relationships often create a significant amount of stress, pain, and even loneliness, isolation and trauma. I also have advanced training in CPT trauma therapy to help people heal from trauma.

Life can be overwhelming. We face transitions that are difficult and uncertain. We can feel we do not matter and are not needed at times. We yearn for someone to hear us and see us. The moments in your life that seem hard to cope with can become more manageable with the help of a team. Counselors are there to help when life seems like a heavy burden. They can walk alongside you as you experience transitions and face challenges. Serving in my community as a work colleague, school volunteer, and civic organizer for over twenty-five years, I am prepared to help others through the experiences I have faced.
