Great to meet you!

I have a strong desire to help those who have suffered trauma of any kind and I am certified in TF-CBT (Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy) for children under the age of 18. My work experiences include Residential Behavioral Health, Elementary Schools, and Child Advocacy Centers. With these experiences, I have gained knowledge of child and adolescent trauma and the full family dynamic.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is open-minded and creative.

What you can expect from our first session
