Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes that meaningful change happens when people feel safe, understood, and genuinely accepted. I work with children and families, and I bring creativity, humor, and a down-to-earth approach into every session. Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating sometimes it looks like play, laughter, art supplies on the floor, or learning new ways to connect in the middle of everyday chaos.

I meet clients exactly where they are, not where anyone thinks they “should” be. Every child and every family is different, so I tailor my approach to fit their strengths, challenges, and goals. I’m especially passionate about working with the neuro diverse population. I deeply value the beautifully unique ways their brains experience the world, and I love helping families better understand, support, and celebrate those differences.

My goal is simple: to help families feel more connected, more confident, and more at peace in their home environment not just getting by, but truly thriving together.

My approach to therapy

I take a child-centered, relationship-first approach to therapy. I believe real growth happens when children feel safe, understood, and accepted not judged or “fixed.” I meet each child and family exactly where they are, adjusting expectations to fit their developmental and emotional needs while building on their unique strengths.

My work is neurodiversity-affirming, especially with children. I deeply respect the individuality of every brain and help families better understand their child’s perspective so they can create a home environment where everyone can thrive. Rather than focusing on deficits, I focus on connection, regulation, and practical strategies that truly fit your family’s real life.

Through play, creativity, and collaborative problem-solving, I partner with families to build meaningful, lasting change with compassion, flexibility, and a little bit of fun along the way.

What you can expect from me

  • A warm, collaborative approach where we work together to find solutions tailored to your family’s needs.
  • A safe, supportive environment where both children and parents feel heard and understood.
  • Play-based techniques and creative strategies to engage your child and make therapy enjoyable.
  • Practical, real-life tools to help families thrive at home and build lasting positive change.
  • A focus on neurodiversity and celebrating your child and family's unique strengths.
