My Philosophy
We will explore your current thought processes and find new paths for your thoughts to take and then find support for them. Every person is different and together we will find what works best for you and/or your child. With children we will explore different tools to use to move forward in life and find practices that enhance mental health giving your child what they need to succeed in life as teens and adults.

My Approach
My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. We achieve this by making a safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan. I promise to be there for you every step of your journey. My goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.

Further Information
During our first session we will explore where you are currently and what your main goals for therapy are. I generally schedule a parent session once a month for children
under 16 to discuss progress, goals and concerns. Children under 10 first session will be parent only, then child sessions after, followed by the monthly parent sessions.
