Life can be especially difficult for our young people today. It is my goal to assist all my clients starting at age 3 years, through adults to learn how to make healthy and positive decisions in their lives and to empower them to have a good, healthy self image and to successfully move into their future. I am not rooted in one particular type of therapy. This is because the same thing does not work on everyone. I believe in a wrap around style of therapy. It is not just the child, it is its environment which could include, living environment, school, friend groups and more.
My specialty is children through young adults. As a mother, educator and someone who has dealt with special needs, I can reach children where others have not been successful. I am a person who will get eye to eye with my clients, and make sure they feel heard and understood.
My clients need to be heard and need to feel that there is someone listening to them, so do the parents. So they are not alone. I am here to walk along with my clients while helping them create a toolbox for the future.
