I work with children (5+), adolescents (families) and adults. Children often exhibit behaviors such as outbursts, meltdowns or withdrawal that indicate their cry for help. Pre-teens, teens and adults will often exhibit signs of depression and anxiety or even physical symptoms such as stomach aches, headaches, sleep disturbances or other health concerns that are often a sign of their internal struggles. No matter the age I believe all can benefit from mental health services. I believe strongly in the mind-body connection and use this belief to guide the therapeutic process to meet your unique needs.
I specialize in trauma (as well as depression and anxiety) using a variety of approaches such as CBT, DBT, Mindfulness therapies and skills training. I am also trained in EMDR, a process which helps individuals process trauma and negative self talk to help alleviate symptoms. I am also trained in play therapy and sand tray.
If you think you could benefit from my services I invite you to contact me and ask for a free 15 minute consultation appointment to determine if I am the right fit for you or your child. When working with very young children I like to alternate child sessions, with parenting/caregiver sessions, I have found that this helps accelerate progress.
