I currently have after school/evening and weekend availability. I strive to provide a safe environment where you will feel understood, accepted, and challenged. I can help you safely process grief and trauma at your own pace, reframe those negative thoughts without shame, and regain the skills to help connect with others. I specialize in working with women, teens and children 3+.
Using evidenced- based practice I have been trained to help navigate anxiety, depression, unwanted behaviors, as well as other concerns. I have experience helping those who are walking through big life changes, loss, loneliness and navigating the big questions. I also have years of experience working with parents and children, tackling unwanted behaviors.
My hope is you are able to come out on the other side with a greater sense of self, as well as tangible ways to continue that care after our time together. I look forward to hearing from you!

I prefer to spend some time getting to know you and then talk about best practice moving forward. Some therapy techniques aren't for everyone and we want to make sure we find the right fit!
