Great to meet you!

I am passionate about supporting children, youth, adults, and families in creating a happier and healthier future. My approach is centered on empowering each child and their family to effectively navigate challenges while helping recognize their potential so they can overcome adversity and achieve personal growth.

My approach to therapy

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients understand and change the interplay between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. This approach, combined with play-based methods for younger clients, ensures therapy is both effective and enjoyable. My practice adheres to trauma-informed principles, focusing on safety, choice, and empowerment. I also adopt a strength-based perspective, highlighting each client’s resilience to foster confidence and optimism.

What you can expect from me

My clients can expect to gain deeper insights into the interplay of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, helping them to identify and alter unhelpful patterns. We will work together to equip them with practical coping strategies to manage stress, regulate emotions, and respond to challenges more effectively. By utilizing play-based methods for younger clients, it ensures that therapy is not only beneficial but also enjoyable and engaging.
