Are you or someone you know going through a rough patch? Life's troubles getting you down? Let me provide empowerment in your time of need.

I am a Registered Play Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor. Children often go through many difficult things and don't know how to cope in healthy ways. Their little minds struggle to communicate their needs, which can leave parents feeling lost and helpless. With over 25 years of experience working with children, I help guide them in understanding and communicating their feelings and needs. Through the use of Play Therapy I can help children and their families create healthier relationships, which can decrease the stress for the whole family.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in Person-Centered therapy in which the relationship between client and clinician is a priority and is based in mutual trust and respect, empathy and congruence. I use integrative techniques in every session to meet the unique needs of each client, such as CBT, trauma-informed therapy and mindfulness-based therapy. I believe that individuals are experts on themselves and because of this I take a collaborative approach in working with clients, utilizing what is known as Feedback Informed Treatment (FIT) to get client input in evaluating progress and clients’ needs.

Life is a beautiful journey but it's path is undeniably filled with "pitfalls" that can ensnare us, imprison us, and rob us of hope. My goal is to come alongside you when you feel "stuck," and help you find the key that unlocks the door to freedom. As we walk together my goal is to help you discover hope again as you find relief from painful emotional wounds and break free from unhelpful thought patterns and false core beliefs. You will also learn practical ways to control thoughts, urges, and emotions keeping you stuck in unwanted, destructive behavior patterns.

Life gives us lessons that I also like to call speed bumps. Like any speed bump, you can ignore it, zoom over it, and possibly tear up your vehicle; or you can slow down, allow patience for yourself, and ease over it with care. I encourage people to slow down, complete a needs assessment, and proceed with care and compassion for oneself. Your current challenge is a speed bump, not a permanent stop light. Let’s figure out a way forward.
