Do you feel unheard, isolated, misunderstood and your life is on "pause"? Or perhaps you may feel as though you are sitting at an intersection in your life wondering which way is the best direction for you to take in order to obtain your self-identified goal(s). Understanding that the journey to obtaining life goals most often encompasses recognizing and working through the pauses, risks, and stuckness of life in order to achieve personal growth and overall wellness.

I take a play-based approach with children, recognizing that play is a child’s natural form of communication.
Through play, children are able to express emotions, process experiences, and make sense of their world in ways that words alone often cannot. Play therapy provides a safe and developmentally appropriate space for healing, emotional growth, and skill-building. I currently attend Capella University, am working on a graduate certificate in play therapy, and am under the supervision of both a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor/ LCMHCS and a LCSW. I am also trained in sand tray with the Oaklander Model.
