Adult clients come to me when feeling stuck, anxious, or depressed. Others are coping with life changes, relationship issues, trauma, or loss. I strive to be an honest, accepting, and active partner in your journey to greater fulfillment. Using a variety of approaches, I support my clients to gain insight and self-acceptance, to navigate life transitions, to deepen relationships, and to make meaning from loss. Therapy is self-care. Now is the time to seek the support you deserve. Give me a call, email, or check out my website. Let's get started.
I also work with children and adolescents to address emotional, social and behavioral issues, as well as family crises like separation/divorce, illness, and grief. I combine play therapy, which utilizes children's natural means of self-expression, with cognitive behavioral techniques, to give children tools for adjusting to change, expressing feelings, and gaining confidence.
In partnering with families, I strive to be a playful and accepting "team mate" to my youngest clients, while providing parents with the support and tools they need to raise happy and healthy children. Parenting is hard and messy work, yes. But it should also be fulfilling and fun. Let's strive for that together.
