Do you find yourself struggling in your family or social relationships? Feeling anxious, depressed or disconnected from those around you? Is a family member struggling with feelings of depression, loneliness, anger outbursts, or social withdrawal? Does your child struggle with social, emotional or behavioral issues at school?
Often, it can help to just have somebody to talk to or a compassionate person to listen and help find solutions. We will work together in a safe, non- judgmental environment to lower the stress in your life and find the best way to move forward for you and your loved ones.
I endeavor to create a caring, compassionate environment for my clients where they can express their feelings and process their trauma. I take a client centered approach to everything I do in therapy. I will work collaboratively with you to create a therapeutic experience that caters specifically to you or your family’s needs.
I have worked with families and people of all shapes and sizes and people from different cultural backgrounds struggling with all manner of emotional issues. I have also worked extensively with neurodivergent children, tackling the challenges associated with autism spectrum disorder ADHD and a variety of physical disabilities.
