Throughout my training and experience, I have provided individual, group, and family counseling in community, child welfare, and substance use treatment settings. I work from a client-centered approach and consider myself a guest on your journey to hope, wellness, and strength.

I enjoy working with clients with a wide range of backgrounds, presenting problems, and personality styles. Whether it is a child who is starting to show some signs of struggling with behavior, mood, or school performance, to adults who feel a sense that something is missing for most of their lives, to people impacted by the pandemic or traumatized in other ways. Coming to therapy is a difficult decision for many, and helping individuals manage the initial anxieties and hesitations is probably one of the most important parts of the work; developing a strong therapeutic relationship is a key way to navigate these normal reactions.

One of the reasons that I choose to primarily work with children is my admiration for their incredible resilience despite some very difficult circumstances. I’m inspired by the resilience of children and their ability to “adjust their sails” when the tough winds of life blow. Despite their strength and determination, children often need a helping hand, a friendly face and a listening ear in order to develop resiliency. I view my work with children and their parents/guardians as “teamwork” as we seek together to identify what is needed to help children express themselves and improve their resiliency skills.
