Are you frustrated by your child's behavior? Children communicate through behavior. Exploring the meaning of challenging behaviors can help identify obstacles that may be preventing a child from expressing and managing strong feelings, from developing meaningful/effective relationships, and from coping with stress. The clients I typically see are resilient and want things to improve. This can mean different things I am here to help you determine how best to make this happen. I see working with the family, as well as the child, as critically important.

While working primarily with children, I noticed the same underlying unmet needs that continue to manifest in my adult clients. Abuse, trauma, unmet needs, feeling unseen, unheard, or misunderstood in childhood affect the way our brains develop. This includes the lens in which we perceive the world around us and to understand our role in it. Understanding yourself, healing your inner child, feeling your emotions, and navigating relationships are crucial for creating and nurturing your inner emotional strength, resilience, and health.

“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen” Brene Brown. I believe reaching out for counseling support takes courage as it leads us out of our comfort zone. Finding a supportive counselor is an important first step in the counseling process and I base my practice on being a supportive and non-judgmental partner to help you navigate through difficult times. I wholeheartedly believe that making one or two small changes can free a person up to move toward the life they want to live. I love the work I do!
