I elicit hope when the world seems hopeless. My approach is to develop a therapeutic relationship where authenticity is encouraged in a compassionate, judgement free space. Majority of the children I work with simply want to just be kids, but there is a concern or barrier that needs to be addressed or removed first. Majority of the youth I work with are trying to figure out their purpose and how to focus on the future. The families I work with want to reduce stress and be cohesive. The couples I work with want to be unified and feel like they are together in their relationship. The adults want to be happy and content.
For each different population, I offer genuine respect and extensive knowledge. Helping individuals with special needs and their families has been my passion for over 25 years. I am an active listener who is compassionate and caring. I create an environment where people can be themselves and not afraid to express themselves. This is truly a safe place.
If you or a loved one is struggling with stress surrounding a special need or a barrier to achieving happiness, please contact me. Everyone struggles at some point in their lives and it is okay to ask for help. I have many years of experience working with the DD population and with individuals on the Autism Spectrum of all ages.

My main area of focus is children, adolescents and their families. When one person in the family has an identified special need such as autism, adhd, add, depression, anxiety, etc. the whole family can need support along with the individual.

With children I use play therapy, including sand therapy, and art therapy. Additionally, I use Cogntive Behavioral Therapy to help individuals look at how thoughts affect emotions and behaviors. I also use positive approaches to behavioral changes when helping families with children who have challenging behaviors.
