I strive to create an inclusive and safe space for all clients. While I accept clients from ages 12-100, I have worked most of my professional career with adolescents and teenagers and as such have large amounts of experience working with the issues most common to that demographic such as but not limited to: anxiety, ADHD, depression, impulse control issues, anger issues, screen time addictions, issues transitioning to High School or college, and many more.
Services include: CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with a person-centered approach. Gestalt and Psychodynamic, as well as Reality Therapy, techniques are utilized to help provide a well-rounded approach to therapy that works best for the client. Play Therapy is utilized for children to help keep them engaged and interested in sessions so that they can grow.
I like to consider my therapy style as more laid-back and informal. A "normal" session for me is what I like to consider "conversational" and will feel more like speaking with a friend at a cafe than a traditional therapy session. For kids, play therapy is utilized to bring games and techniques into session to help keep them engaged.
