I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor and a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor with 28 years of experience working in a variety of settings with children, teens, and their families. I work with anxiety, anger management issues, ADHD issues, depression, behavioral issues, and trauma.

Fear, anxiety, and shame are often the root causes of many of our society’s mental struggles and concerns. If you feel like you are in a pit of despair or stuck in your pattern of thinking, you may need help getting a new focus or sharing your burden with someone who can listen without judgement. My specialty is adolescents or young adults who are struggling with depression or anxiety. I also work with children by implementing play and art therapy as a means to gain trust and insight into his/her motivations and the crisis present. My philosophy and interventions are faith based, research supported, and very solution focused.
