Do you find yourself always arguing with your child? Does it feel like your minds work completely opposite from each other? You all used to get along so well and now you feel so distant. Or maybe your child is struggling in school and you dread parent-teacher conferences. Maybe your child's friendships have changed in a profoundly negative way and you worry for your child. Growing up and becoming independent has never been more difficult for the younger generation, and I am here to assist your family in navigating these challenges.

I have worked with children,teenagers and adults for over 30 years. I provide a warm, friendly, and "human" environment for clients and their families within which we can work together to address the concerns and problems that are creating problems in everyday life. In today's environment, there are so many pressures on kids and their parents...school, friends, finances, jobs...and sometimes it seems overwhelming. Together we can find some solutions to make coping with life's stresses easier and more productive. Communication is a key factor, as well as developing strategies that help in managing those difficult situations.

I have experience working with adolescents and children as young as 4 years old, with a variety of Developmental Delays, Autism and Self-Regulatory issues.
I have always been amazed at the inherent healing qualities of art. By providing my clients with a safe holding environment, I pave the way to explore their concerns in therapy. Art has a way of quickly bringing issues from the unconscious into the conscious realm where they can be processed verbally or just witnessed. Art is wonderful for increasing tolerance of frustration, delay of gratification and learning to verbalize emotional states. I use all of the Expressive Arts to create individually tailored experientials to promote increased understanding and growth with my clients.

My practice is based in creating a therapeutic relationship that will allow me to support individuals, couples, children, parents, and families in overcoming the challenges they are facing.
We have all felt a lack of connection at some time, whether it is lack of connection with others or lack of connection with ourselves. It is common for this feeling to become more profound at specific times or due to certain experiences. This may include experiences with trauma, foster care and adoption, grief and loss, infertility, or unexpected circumstances or changes, such as divorce, challenges with children's development, illness/loss of a loved one, or changes in employment. My focus is in helping clients to develop a stronger sense of connection toward the goal of finding a new sense of meaning, acceptance, and fulfillment.

Additionally, I conduct home studies for adoptive parents and provide counseling for prospective adoptive parents facing challenges with adoptive children.
Most of us experience frustration and some degree of disorder in our daily lives. However, what we think about the way we feel will impact the behaviors we engage in and the choices we make. Going through our days feeling overwhelmed and never understood is a choice we make, which for us becomes acceptable when we think too much of what other's will think about us. Can I tell you that this time it is alright to think of yourself first? I counsel with individuals or couples seeking to improve overall mental health well-being and/or strengthen relationships.

I love working with children and youth, especially teens and young adults.
Everyone has times in their lives when stress seems overwhelming, when ways that we use to cope just aren't working anymore, or are even making the situation worse. Even more so coming out of a pandemic. You might be sad, anxious, hurting yourself or isolating and want to change. Counseling can help you to move forward at times when you feel stuck, can help you to develop new coping skills and tools to manage life's challenges, and rediscover the strength inside you. I provide an accepting, non-judgmental, confidential environment, and a safe place to explore your thoughts and feelings with a caring, compassionate listener.
