It can be exhausting as a parent seeing your child suffering and feeling like you just don’t know what to do or say. Many families reach out for support after struggling alone through weeks or months where every day feels like a constant uphill battle. Reaching out to a therapist is not easy. Regardless of the reason, calling a stranger to ask for help can feel intimidating. I would like to take a moment to reassure you that this first step is often the hardest, but it does get easier. I offer a safe non-judgmental space to talk about the difficulties you and your child have been experiencing and begin taking steps forward together.
I am a licensed clinician and registered play therapist who works with children, teens, parents, & adults. I have advanced training with children and teens to improve their mood, cope with anxiety and stressors, increase emotional regulation, and building their self-esteem. I also partner with parents to provide support for challenges they are facing.
You’ve been handling this alone for so long. If you've read my profile up until this point, there might be something in my words that resonate with you. If you are considering reaching out or wondering how this can be helpful, please contact me for a free phone consultation. I'm happy to speak with you about any concerns and answer your questions.

Billing can be confusing. I work to make this process as simple as possible. I am in-network with some insurance plans. If I am out-of-network with your plan, I'd be happy to explain how to use your out-of-network benefits, walk you through the process, and provide a super bill for your insurance.
