I work with young children, teens, and families who are navigating autism, developmental delays, anxiety, or behavioral challenges. Many of the families I see feel overwhelmed, unsure how to best support their child, or frustrated by systems like school and IEP processes. I help parents and children better understand what’s going on, build practical tools, and create more confidence and connection at home and in daily life.

Deciding to participate in therapy can be a daunting decision for many reasons. I truly believe though that everyone deserves the opportunity to talk to someone who is not just a friend or family member and at an affordable rate. So many of us are living everyday life while processing thoughts and feelings in our head, but without resolution. Everyone's journey in therapy looks different and I am on board to be a part of your journey! Let's talk and maybe resolve some of those unresolved feelings and situations :)

Accepting New Patients!!! Madeline Albright said, "It took a long time for me to develop a voice and now that I have it, I am not going to be silent." If you are looking to develop your voice and sense of self while overcoming the pain of trauma, I am here to help. Many times, we as women don't use our voice for fear of not being believed, heard, or understood. We keep our pain inside, and it's not healthy.

I believe therapy can be a beneficial tool to assist those who are hurting, dissatisfied, or filled with uncertainty. Sometimes we find ourselves struggling in our relationships. We may have persistent sadness or worries that get in the way of life. We may have losses that are too difficult to process on our own. Or we may feel our life has just gotten off track. There are many reasons to seek therapy. Do you want to learn and try new coping skills? Do you want to improve a relationship? Do you want help working through a problem in your life? I can help. I offer therapy in-person or online and have evening availability.

The metrics of a good relationship are clear and well researched. 'Small things done often' makes the greatest impact on relationship happiness. We focus on attunement, accountability, building empathy and wise communication patterns that increase intimacy and trust. As you practice skills in session and use them at home you will see things change. Things may improve sooner than you expect. This work is grounded in Imago Relationship Therapy, the Developmental Model of The Couples Institute, the gold standard research of the Gottman Institute and advances in neuroscience. I also work with individuals seeking wholeness and healing.
