For over a decade, I've dedicated myself to supporting children, teens, and families through emotional and behavioral health challenges. Whether you're facing mental health issues or seeking greater fulfillment, know that you're not alone. My therapeutic approach emphasizes collaboration, focusing on your individual needs, interests, and strengths. Change happens at home and I strongly recommend family and/or couples counseling to be part of most people's treatment. Together, we'll create a safe, empowering space for lasting personal growth and healing.
With expertise in trauma treatment (TF-CBT, EMDR), Internal Family Systems, CBT, and extensive training in crisis intervention, suicidal ideation, and self-harm, I offer a unique blend of therapeutic modalities that caters to your needs and style.
Finding the right therapist is crucial for change. Our agency is intent on helping serve our community. If for whatever reason we are not a good fit, we will refer you to someone who is.

While I consider myself a trauma therapist, I have worked in diverse settings that has lead to some specializations that don't seem to match, but I can't imagine not working with any of these groups. Along with trauma work, I am an "angry 8 year old whisperer." I also am very comfortable/effective at working with people who experience Suicidal Ideation or engage in non/suicidal self injury.

I cater my approach depending on the person I am seeing, but often utilize Internal Family Systems Therapy as my primary modality. My background is in behaviorism and still often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, especially with children, to inform and supplement our sessions. For treating trauma/PTSD, my preferred approach is EMDR.
