I help people who feel overwhelmed or trapped by the hard and heavy things in their lives find a way forward. I strive to provide a safe place and safe relationship for clients to talk about challenges, process thoughts and feelings, explore solutions, practice skills, and develop confidence to effect change within their own lives. My desire is to join clients on their journey, offering compassion and support as they determine their own needs and solutions. I combine person-centered therapy with evidence based techniques and interventions to help patients find hope and healing.
I love working with clients of all ages—toddlers, preschoolers, school age children, teenagers, college students, and adults! In my 12 years of clinical experience, I have worked with clients on a wide range of issues including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, conflict/communication problems, behavior issues, and developmental issues.
A a registered play therapist, I specialize in using play—children’s natural means of expression—to help preschool and elementary age children work through what is bothering them and practice the skills needed to overcome the challenges they face. As part of this, I also specialize in helping parents learn how to best help, guide, support their children.
