I work with a wide range of clients and concerns. Anxiety, depression, past trauma, relationship struggles, and behavior difficulties in teens and children are among a few of the common issues I treat. I have several years of experience with play therapy as well as therapy with adults and teens. I see each client and their experiences as unique to them with their own needs and strengths. I am very open minded and non-judgmental and really do care about each one of my clients. I consider the relationship I have with my clients to be central their success.

I have graduated from Texas State's Animal Assisted Counseling Program and have a trained Siberian Husky, Sansa, as well as a Toby, a Golden Doodle, (who is in training) to be apart of the therapy process. I am a board approved supervisor for both clinical hours as well as for play therapy and love sharing what I have learned with others in my field.

I have a fully equipped play therapy studio (for all ages) including sand tray, art and music therapy, and imaginative play equipment. In addition to traditional talk therapy, I am well trained in the use of these alternative modalities for clients who may benefit. We also do a lot of work with parents to help support and build parenting tools.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy works quickly to resolve PTSD symptoms. What may take years in talk therapy, ART only takes a couple sessions to resolve. Understanding how the brain works has changed treatment options for people stuck in a trauma cycle.
