Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of experience, I specialize in helping children and teenagers navigate behavior challenges, defiance, anxiety, and the effects of trauma. I work hand-in-hand with parents to strengthen relationships, improve communication, and bring more peace into the home.

My approach to therapy

y approach is active, compassionate, and results-focused. I use evidence-based models like Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) to guide caregivers in real time during play and discipline moments. I also incorporate the Triple P Positive Parenting Program to provide practical, flexible strategies that reduce power struggles and increase confidence. For children who have experienced trauma, I offer Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to support healing and build emotional resilience.

What you can expect from me

You can expect our first few sessions to be structured and collaborative—we’ll clarify your child’s needs, identify family strengths, and create a plan that feels both realistic and hopeful. I believe in empowering caregivers while making sure children feel seen, heard, and safe.
