I'm a therapist with a Heart for Healing. I'm a committed clinician who has extensive training in many specialties and will engage clients from perspectives that best suit success given the circumstances at the start of therapy. I'm a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor, EMDR Clinician, Trauma informed therapist, Qualified Adoptions Specialist/Clinician, and utilize evidence-based strategies with clients for healing and creating the best life.
When we meet for our first session we will really try to work together to see the Big picture of what is happening that brings you to therapy. We will as well begin to develop some self care solutions for beginning to implement skills into life that can provide relief.
I utilize many different approaches to therapy sessions including strength-based perspective, solution focused, play therapy, art therapy, trauma focused, humanistic, Motivational interviewing, clinical hypnosis, EMDR, DBT, CBT, and Attachment based methods.
Though I hold specialty in helping via Play and Experiential sessions I am sure to hold space for clients to be heard and seen in many different ways. I take time to explore strengths and then move towards developing skills for success in all areas of life.
I work primarily with ages 5-25 though I have worked during my career with clients that are in more mature stages of adult life.
