I work with children and adults and can help with many issues including but not limited to anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, emotion regulation, etc. These symptoms often arise from a wide array of experiences and situations that can range from things like developmental diagnoses and/or identity concerns to trauma.
I specialize in working with children/adolescents/young adults because I am passionate about helping youth learn how to express themselves in a healthy way and use coping skills to prevent issues from their younger life from turning into larger issues as adults. I use principles of CBT and SFBT with art/talk therapy and am trained in TF-CBT as well.
As a therapist, teacher, and mother, I have a dynamic understanding and open approach to therapy. I am here to help you gain insight and learn how to cope with the symptoms you have been experiencing and the situations present in your life. I always work with a non-judgemental mindset and provide a safe space for you to move forward in a positive way.

Therapy begins with an intake session where you and I (and sometimes a child's parents) get to know each other and set goals. The plan of treatment usually involves a weekly session with checkpoints to assess your progress. When goals have been met, we sometimes taper off therapy by setting bi-weekly sessions and/or maintenance visits.
