I help children and adolescents identify and cope with big feelings and life transitions. For children, I work alongside parents, and together, we work on ways to develop healthy coping mechanisms, reduce stress, and increase well-being for their child. I also counsel adults and have helped my clients to gain more control over depression, anxiety, and bipolar symptoms.
I help clients work to achieve their best well-being. I provide a calming and safe space for them to feel heard. My counseling theory combines cognitive behavioral therapy with client-centered methods. I use child-centered play therapy techniques for children and expressive counseling methods for teens.
Congratulations on making the first and sometimes most challenging step. You are not alone. I am here to walk beside you on your journey to mental health.

Using CBT, we will look at how your thoughts affect your feelings and behaviors, find ways to challenge unhelpful thoughts, and develop more realistic ones. I offer Biblical counseling when requested. In play therapy, children express themselves using their natural medium: play. During their time, they are in charge of their choices and learn important skills like self-discovery and self-control.

I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client Centered Methods. I also utilize play therapy techniques. In my first session with adults and teenagers, I will help them explore their reason for seeking counseling and then we will make some goals together toward better well being. I will also meet with parents of children and teenagers to discuss goals for their child.
