Great to meet you!

My specialty is working with parents, children, teens and young adults. In addition to working in a private practice setting, I have worked in medical, juvenile justice and homeless/runaway youth settings- giving me a wide breadth of experience with young people and families.

My approach to therapy

I work collaboratively with youth and parents, empowering them to actively engage in the therapeutic process and utilize their strengths to achieve their goals. I specialize in anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD and autism spectrum disorders.

What you can expect from me

We will discuss what brings the client to therapy and gather information so that an initial plan/approach can be identified. The client is encouraged to ask questions so that we can determine if we are a good fit to work together.
