Great to meet you!

Hi there! As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist, I have a special passion for helping children and teens work through grief, trauma, build self-esteem, and navigate feelings of depression, anxiety, and more. I also love partnering with parents of all family types to help them discover new parenting skills and strengthen your family bonds.

My approach to therapy

I use an integrated approach in my practice, tailoring therapy to fit you or your child's unique needs. Together we'll explore what you need and adjust to the most appropriate approach for you. I use a combination of Play Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy help you reach your therapy goals.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we'll talk about what you or your child needs out of therapy. We'll discuss goals and how therapy will look for your individual needs.
