As a former foster child who entered foster care at the age of 12 and aged out, I have a passion for serving children and adolescents who have similar experiences. However, this does not limit my empathy for serving individuals and groups who are committed to improving their mental health. I am an older sister of 10 siblings (8 of them being all boys) who have assisted with my development in the skills, abilities, and patience that aids in therapeutic relationships with children and adolescents. I am committed to building resilience and fortitude while improving one's mental health and well-being.
My approach to therapy includes, Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Play Therapy, and Solutions-Focused.
I love to listen to music in my free time as well as spend time with friends and family enjoying a competitive game night. Looking forward to working with you!
