The list of topics I work with is nearly all encompassing. We are all human, and on that level, I'm able to relate to the emotional aspect of your human experience and support your journey. My primary focus with any client is to build rapport. This means taking the time to understand your past challenges, your present circumstances, and future endeavors. Some of the most important aspects of therapy are to be heard, to be understood, and to have a supportive space to speak without fear of judgement.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me… but something is. - I hear that a lot, and I’m good at helping people turn that confusion into clarity. I work with adults who feel emotionally stuck, intensely reactive, chronically dissatisfied, or like they keep sabotaging progress. Maybe your mood flips fast, your thoughts spiral, you feel empty or disconnected, or you’re exhausted from trying to hold it together. Maybe you’ve collected labels over the years and none of them fully fit. My style is direct, curious, and assessment-informed. I like patterns. I like nuance. I like figuring out what’s driving the behavior underneath the behavior.

As a therapist, I see each of my clients as unique individuals—beautifully complex and full of potential—not as a diagnosis or a label. I believe we are all shaped by our environments and early experiences, and the ways we've learned to survive often reflect remarkable resilience. Yet, over time, those very survival strategies can become barriers to connection, joy, presence, and personal growth.

FAQ - About Child Therapy
When does a child need to see a therapist?
Children naturally experience emotional ups and downs. Sometimes, though, they need support from a professional. A child may benefit from therapy if their emotions or behaviors change significantly within a short period of time. For example, if a child usually spends time with friends after school but begins isolating in their room, further inquiry is warranted. Other areas for concern include altered sleep patterns, lack of appetite, intense anger, irritability, or hopelessness, or developmental regression in young children (bedwetting, thumb-sucking).
What can a child therapist help with?
A therapist can help with any difficult experience a child may encounter growing up, including learning problems or anxiety related to school, relationship challenges with friends or parents, bullying, intense emotions or phobias, divorce and family dynamics, or the death of a pet or loved one. A therapist can help children process their experience and develop coping skills in an age-appropriate way
What therapy types are most suitable for children?
Children can benefit from different forms of therapy, including family therapy, parent-child interaction therapy, play therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and exposure therapy, depending on their condition. Play therapy is a great option for younger children who may not be able to fully articulate their feelings. In this approach, kids play with toys and games while a therapist observes and helps the child express their emotions and develop coping skills.
Do I need to attend therapy with my child?
Parents are an integral part of a child’s therapy, but the specifics of their involvement vary. If your child is young, you may attend most or all sessions; if your child is older, you may attend a few sessions or none; sometimes a therapist may ask you to have a session on your own. Whatever the arrangement, you should expect to work collaboratively with the therapist, your child, and your family members to take steps to help support your child.
How can I tell if a therapist is a good fit for my child?
A child needs to feel comfortable opening up about their thoughts and feelings, so if your child feels a sense of comfort, ease, and trust with their therapist, that’s a great sign. In addition, a therapist is a good fit for your child if the two can communicate well together; a clinician should be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and in an age-appropriate manner.
