In our first session together, here's what you can expect

I think of therapy as cleaning out that closet that you've crammed everything in for who knows how long. You've eventually got to pull everything out, decide what needs to be kept, mourn the things that need to be thrown away, and finally, put it all back in its designated place for future needs. However, before you get to work, you need to survey the damage, make a plan, and probably call for backup. I'm the backup. We will move at your pace, focus on what you deem important, and determine where to put everything we find. Our first session will be where you determine whether or not I am the backup you need.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am well versed in therapeautic approaches, but more importantly, I am relatable and have a passion for helping others. I have worked extensively with young people in the past, but have found that the greatest impact I have made in their lives has been when I have had the opportunities to positively impact their relationships with their trusting adults. By helping adults heal and understand what they're healing from, I am indirectly improving the futures of every child they encounter.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

As a parent and educator of almost twenty years, I am passionate about improving the lives of young people by working with those who love them, whether as their parents, caretakers, educators, or coaches. I am uniquely positioned to help adult clients understand their pasts, work through traumas, and improve their understandings of the children in their lives. This promotes an improvement to the client's overall wellbeing while strengthening the foundations they're establishing for the children in their lives.
