My website

My ideal clients are children, adolescents, and families who are navigating challenges such as trauma, grief, behavioral concerns, school-related difficulties, or family stress. Many of the individuals I serve are working through complex life experiences, including housing instability or major family transitions, and need a safe space to process what they’ve been through. I’m especially passionate about supporting students and families in overcoming barriers that impact their emotional well-being and success. I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach, using trauma-informed care, play therapy, and family-centered strategies.
