I work with children, adolescents, young adults, and families. I specialize in ADHD, stress management, anxiety, grief, life transitions, finding school or work/life balance, parenting, and behavior management.
While my therapeutic approach is tailored to each client I work with, I always take a strength-based approach. I often utilize solution-focused and cognitive behavioral approaches alongside coping skills training. I have a strong background in parent education, including developing and leading a class for parents of children with ADHD.
My work with youth often involves sessions with parents or caregivers focused on strategies to support their children and understand and manage behaviors. When not working, I love to play pickleball, read, build Lego kits, and go to the beach. Please reach out if I can help you or your family members build stronger coping skills and thrive.
