For over 10 years, I have dedicated my practice to supporting children, teenagers, and their families through life's ups and downs. Whether your child is facing a specifically challenging or traumatic season, or simply trying to navigate the everyday stressors of growing up, my goal is to provide them with concrete, healthy coping skills to help them thrive.

I believe that true healing and growth happen within the context of the family. Because of this, a vital part of my work involves partnering directly with parents. I am passionate about helping you support your child, encouraging healthy communication, and establish clear, loving boundaries. Together, we can create a supportive home environment that allows your child to build resilience, find their voice, and truly be the best they can be.

Do you feel taken advantage of and like no matter what you do, you can't win? Are you a victim of emotional, verbal or physical abuse? Do you love someone who is caught up in the pain of addiction or mental illness? Have you tried everything you can think of but have no idea how to help or what else to do? Are you afraid your partner, spouse, adult child or other loved one will end up in jail, or worse? I get it. Maybe you're just mad. Maybe you're tired of having to handle everything yourself. I get that too.
