I work best with children, teens, and adults who feel stuck in patterns of anxiety, trauma responses, emotional overwhelm, or behavior that is creating conflict at home, school, or in relationships. Many of my clients understand what they “should” do but struggle to apply it when emotions take over. Therapy with me is active, practical, and collaborative. We focus on understanding the root of the problem, increasing self-awareness, strengthening regulation and self-control, and building confidence through skills that can be used outside of the therapy room.
