Great to meet you!

As a compassionate Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 14+ years of experience, I specialize in helping children (2-15 years) and families thrive. I provide therapeutic care, coaching, and parent training to address emotional and behavioral issues, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, and autism. My work focuses on improving frustration tolerance, response to directives, independence, social skills, coping strategies, and strengthening parent-child relationships in various settings.

My approach to therapy

I approach my work from an integrated perspective, first understanding each child and family’s unique needs and identifying their strengths. I believe every behavior serves a function, and meaningful change comes through connection, insight, skill-building, and practice. Collaboration is essential, so I work closely with schools and other relevant systems. With a firm yet nurturing approach, I provide practical tools and action plans that can be immediately applied in your family’s life.

What you can expect from me

In our initial session, we’ll take time to explore the reasons you’re seeking therapy and your personal motivations. This will allow me to better tailor our sessions to meet your unique needs. We’ll review your psychosocial history, identify specific therapeutic goals, and collaborate on a plan to achieve them. Throughout our work together, you can count on empathy, trust-building, and a focus on developing healthy, open communication. I look forward to partnering with you on this journey!
