To learn and grow, children require a tapestry of love, safety, and challenge. When the challenges youth face exceed the amount of resources available, therapy can be helpful. Private, goal oriented, engaging and fun activities can motivate youth to participate in a process they might otherwise avoid. In my practice, I help children address anger, depression, trauma, school related difficulties, divorce, and adjustment issues. With over 20 years of clinical expertise, I understand that children's therapy is most effective when the process is safe and interesting. In my practice I help youth and families embrace needed change by using their strengths to solve problems.

Parenting is TOUGH work. It's absolutely beautiful but if you ever feel exhausted, confused, stuck, helpless, or misunderstood, you are not alone. Being a child is also TOUGH work. You're constantly trying to make sense of what happens in your world and in the big world, as your body and brain are still working on mastering their developmental tasks. Every child deserves a safe and neutral space to work on what's important to them in the process of making sense of their experiences. Every parent deserves warm and compassionate support without judgement to help understand, reconnect, and find the strengths and power already within.
