Great to meet you!

You know your child is so much more than the way they’re acting right now, but everything you’ve done to help so far hasn’t worked. You’re eager to find a solution to help them thrive in their own unique way. I know that the struggle is real and I am so glad that you are taking a step towards a brighter future. I not only know what needs to happen—I also know how to get you there.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use Child Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and play therapy, and have a deep understanding of how relationships and brain development affect behavior. My approach is rooted in compassion and I provide care tailored to the unique needs of your child and family. I specialize in working with children of all ages that have experienced trauma or high levels of stress and additionally love to work with children experiencing anxiety or depression.

What you can expect from our first session

I always start with an introductory session, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your family's story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. I use a collaborative approach where we work together to make your child's and family's goals a reality!
