Is your child verbally and physically aggressive that it is impossible to go out to even a store or you dread their teachers reporting their "behaviors" at school? Are you worried that your child is too shy to engage in positive friendship and activities? Parenting can be very challenging at times, and I am here to listen, understand, and create treatment plan that are unique and meaningful for your child and your family. I believe (& witnessed!) children thrive despite trauma and life challenges with consistent supportive caregiving!!!

Change can be scary and challenging for children and adults. We develop many different ways of coping with change, some that are healthy and others that are not. While you are the expert in your own life, I am here to help you (regardless of age) process through change and make life choices that are healthy for you in a safe, non-judgmental space. I have experience working with individuals of all ages, and cultures, as well as different presenting concerns. Working with me, we will explore your life at your pace.

Life's journey can be a winding road, filled with twists and turns that sometimes leave us feeling overwhelmed. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist, I offer compassionate support for children and adults dealing with various issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship/family difficulties. My goal is to create a comfortable and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their emotions and begin healing.

Working with a diverse client population, I provide a brave and grounded space for clients who are curious about new possibilities for their lives. I offer individual, relationship, and family therapy for ages 4+. Rooted in experiential and narrative philosophies, I collaboratively explore the ways clients get stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. No matter how trapped clients may feel in the cycles they find themselves in, there is always a way to break free and to consciously create new cycles. I am here to help clients shed light on those old patterns, explore how they came to be, and step into a new way of being.
