My greatest passion is helping teens, families and LGBTQ+ clients through difficult times. I would love to get to know you and where you're struggling so that we can develop the best plan to help you and your family move toward a happier, more productive life. I have over 15 years experience with children, teens and adults in both agency and school settings. My expertise includes play therapy, adolescent issues, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, trauma and issues specific to LGB and gender diverse clients and their families.
I believe that to gain the most from counseling, clients should feel comfortable and "click" with their therapist. While working with you, I use an eclectic approach pulling strategies and techniques from multiple therapeutic approaches to best help with your current needs.
I offer sliding scale fees and accept most major insurances.
