I specialize in working with children and adolescents. I am passionate about helping young people develop healthy coping skills, build confidence, and strengthen their self-esteem, believing that early intervention can create lasting positive change before adulthood. My approach incorporates play therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support children and teens struggling with mood disorders, motivation challenges, emotional regulation, and everyday life stressors. I strive to create a supportive, engaging environment where young clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped to thrive.
During our first session, my primary goal is to get to know you and help you feel comfortable. I focus on building rapport in a warm, supportive, and judgment-free environment where you can share at your own pace. There is no pressure to tell your entire story right away; we will take our time getting to know each other.
One of the greatest strengths I bring to my sessions is the combination of my clinical training and professional experience with the wisdom gained through my own life experiences. This allows me to connect with clients in an authentic, compassionate, and relatable way.
I work best with children, adolescents, and young adults while they work to navigate growing up, transitions, and the overwhelming changes they experience during this sensitive time. I believe preventative care and providing a safe, trusting bond is crucial in the early life stages. Children's brains are highly malleable which creates hope that self destructive patterns do not have to be permanent as they grow into adults.

I help clients identify negative thought patterns that have affected their lives while also challenging them. Clients will actively learn about how they can't change situations, but they can change the thoughts that directly impact their emotions and behaviors.
