Great to meet you!

I only see people ages 10 - 21.

My passion is to help teens find their voice by empowering them to take control of their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience working with kids and teens. The partnership I form with parents is also extremely important to me, I love helping parents learn skills to form stronger relationships with their children. I enjoy working with teens of all genders and ages, but I specialize in girls and nonbinary folks ages 10-21 who have experienced trauma. If your teen or child has symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, I will work with them using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and mindfulness coping techniques to reduce those symptoms and take control of their traumatic event.

My approach to therapy

I pride myself in finding individual solutions for your child by helping them advocate for themselves and meeting them where they are at, empowering them to be a treatment partner in their own therapy. This strengths-based approach empowers the young person to feel seen and heard, creating a sense of self-advocacy and identity.

What you can expect from me

The most important thing in having a successful therapeutic outcome is the relationship between the therapist and client. Mutual respect and trust are the strongest pillars of my practice.
