Have you ever wished for a way to feel better and learn to manage your emotions or a way to a better future? I work with children and adolescents, and those who care for them. I have experience in the areas of stress reduction/coping, post-partum depression, anxiety, and grief and loss. With children, I treat trauma, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, grief, and behavioral disorders such as ADHD and Oppositional Defiant Disorder. I have also worked with PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System) with children who have autism and are nonverbal.
I am well versed in several therapeutic techniques such as behavior modification practices, cognitive behavioral therapy, strengths-based therapy, and natural therapeutic techniques. I have also found play therapy to be very effective in helping children to become more comfortable to talk as they are doing things that bring them joy.
I look forward to supporting you in ways that will help you to grow, change, and create a life of joy and happiness. I focus on creating a peaceful and calming environment to allow all to heal in their own ways, and I assist clients in developing small, easily attainable goals to reduce the overwhelming feelings that a big change can cause.

In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. I use a various number of treatment types but tend to lean toward CBT, play therapy, and talk therapy however I continue to work through pieces of training and learn more in each area of treatment to help better serve my clients' needs.
