"The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct" (Carl Jung). I find great joy in working with children of all ages in a therapy setting. It's an honor to me when a child chooses to trust me with their wishes, their fears, and their wonders about life. I have experience working with children individually, in hospitals, and through non-profit work in the community. Through the use of play and arts based therapies, I help to facilitate an environment where children are able to truly be themselves, express their emotions, and have the ability to create the answers they need for themselves.

I also have expertise working multiculturally and with individuals of the Abrahamic traditions, folks from Jewish, Christian and Islamic faith traditions, and counseling for these faiths.

Therapy is an interactive and dynamic process. Through non-directive play therapy techniques, as well as more directive cognitive techniques, children and adolescents are able to work through challenges in their lives. This work, alongside a caring and competent therapist, can enable them to emerge with more skills to deal with future challenges and a belief that they have some control in their lives. Parental engagement is key, and I am also available to coach parents through challenging issues with their children , helping them to better understand and appreciate their children .

Stressful life experiences, family conflict, difficulties adjusting, and mental health issues can be overwhelming and at times debilitating. Therapy can provide a safe and supportive outlet to navigate these issues and help individuals and families restore themselves and experience positive and lasting change. Restoration Family Counseling feels strongly that the foundation of therapy is a warm and collaborative relationship where evidence-based therapy techniques are chosen based on each individual's presenting issues, personality, and cultural and familial background. Restoration Family Counseling has a team of 5 clinicians and works with young children , teens, individual adults, families, and couples.

I AM more than enough. I AM worthy of love and appreciation. I AM at peace with my past. I AM confident of my ability to attract abundance in my life daily. As your counselor I AM confident in your ability to make the changes you desire. I am here to assist your move away from things that are no longer working for you and towards your ideal way of being. We are all facing complex issues each day. Which can leave us feeling hopeless or discouraged. But taking the steps to seek help for yourself or your child doesn’t equal failure. It means you’ve recognized the hurt. The focus is now on solutions.

Being a therapist gives me the opportunity to come alongside individuals during difficult times in their lives, as well as to celebrate their joys. It is truly a privilege to be present with people as they navigate their journey. I work with people of all ages: children , adolescents, and adults. My areas of clinical focus include working with individuals who have experienced trauma/PTSD, anxiety, panic disorder, OCD, depression, attachment/relational difficulties, sexual behavior problems, compulsive sexual behavior, social skills deficits, and parenting challenges.

I believe that each of us has goals that we may need help to achieve and I would be honored if you would consider letting me help you with your goals. I know that asking for help from others can be a difficult process, but I believe that working together we can make this a stress free process and we can both benefit from working with each other. Whether it be problems you may be having, problems with your job, with your children , or significant other, let's work together using the skills and strengths that you already have.

Life does not come with an instruction manual (I know, it’s the worst!). But that doesn’t mean you have to give up hope. Sometimes a safe space and a listening ear is all you need to create your own manual. You are unique and so are your challenges. I am here to provide a warm, compassionate, playful, non-judgmental, safe space and empower you to join me in working through those challenges. I believe that therapy should be all-embracing, genuine and rooted in the therapeutic relationship.

Choosing the right therapist can be a difficult decision; especially when they're working so closely with you or your child . You want someone who listens, understands and hears your concerns but is also supportive and nurturing. Let me begin by stating that I provide a safe environment where I incorporate empathy, encouragement, and laughter as part of the therapy process. But most importantly I believe in building a relationship with every person is the key to the healing process.
