My passion is helping others find ways to manage their challenges in this ever-changing journey we call life. For over 27 years I have worked with adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families in a variety of settings; including home, school, office, and in the community. I pride myself in building therapeutic relationships with each individual I work with. By achieving this, I believe we can then work together to help identify what is challenging you currently to get you to the life you choose to live successfully.
I have a specialization in children, adolescents, and young adults with social emotional or cognitive impairments, on the Autism spectrum, and/or behavioral challenges. I have also worked with children and adults regarding challenges with trauma, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, grief and loss, peer pressure, bullying, and many others.
I am a strengths based therapist; focusing on each individual's unique qualities and strengths to help them move forward . We will make a plan together, that works best for you, so that you can feel good about yourself and your life. I look forward to meeting and working with you.
