My website

I work with men, women, teens and children (4+ using "sand tray" and play therapy). Women and men want to get the respect, caring, and love they deserve and struggle in relationships or deal with anxiety and depression or trauma. Teens want respect and to be heard and children want to feel safe and know they are loved but often struggle with the defiance, ADHD, bullying, Autism or sadness. All of my clients want to improve their lives and find more satisfaction in their relationships. They want to feel more at ease with themselves, connect more deeply with family and partners, and experience personal growth.

I know that a focused, positive therapeutic relationship can foster healing, provide understanding, and offer the validation clients did not experience earlier in life. I help them learn practical evidence-based tools to improve relationships, reduce anxiety, deal with trauma and learn they can be happy and fulfilled in their lives.

A supportive therapeutic relationship can improve self-awareness and provide acceptance that helps clients grow. As clients build confidence and learn to value themselves, they create deeper emotional connections, reduce their anxieties and trauma-related symptoms and develop an improved sense of self-worth. This new confidence reinforces their growth.
