I enjoy working with a wide range of clients including children, adolescents, adults, and couples.
Life is filled with plenty of obstacles, and you do not have to encounter these obstacles alone. I strive to create a trusting relationship with all clients and believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship. I am passionate about helping people create and achieve their goals. I believe early therapeutic intervention is crucial in order to equip individuals with the tools to overcome life's obstacles. My areas of focus include treating anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem, and peer relationships.

Life can be challenging, and it can be difficult to know how to make it better. Having someone to help guide you through the challenges can make it less overwhelming. I believe in the power for every person to change their life if given the right roadmap to follow. I work with children, teens, and adults. The treatment approach used depends on the needs of the client. I use play therapy with children because play allows them to express themselves when they may not have the words to talk about their thoughts or feelings. I use traditional talk therapy and other approaches with teens and adults.

I work collaboratively with adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, and other issues that prevent them from fully showing up for themselves or the people in their lives. Sometimes we cannot understand what we are feeling, or why we act the way we do. We hold onto old stories of ourselves and limit ourselves when we don’t even realize we are doing it. I also have experience and a love for working with adolescents and children. I approach my young clients with respect, recognizing them as unique individuals with their own aspirations, challenges, and dreams, separate from their parents/guardians.

My specialization as a Registered Play Therapist allows me to work with children as young as 2 years of age.
Finding the right match between client and therapist is the most critical factor in achieving a positive treatment outcome. It takes a great amount of trust to form a therapeutic relationship. Compassion coupled with confronting unhealthy coping that one may not be aware of are keys to lasting change. My clients often report feeling not only understood, but also helped in understanding their struggles from another perspective. Together we explore unhelpful patterns while practicing healthier ways of being. Clients know my level of sincerity, knowledge and dedication fairly quickly as I believe genuineness is essential to good treatment outcomes.
