About
I am passionate about helping children, teen, or young adults feeling "stuck" by barriers like school pressure, anxiety, depression, or the complexities of ADHD and Autism. They may struggle with school refusal or feel paralyzed by life transitions. They need more than just a listener; they need a safe harbor where their lived experiences are validated by someone who understands the modern social pressures. Their goal is to move from surviving to thriving. By using tools like CBT and mindfulness, they want to feel seen, empowered, and ready to use their inherent strengths to reclaim their happiness and self-worth. I build strong rapport by meeting you where you are. My approach blends CBT and Client-Centered therapy to address your unique needs. I use practical tools like mindfulness, journaling, and motivational interviewing to highlight your strengths. Together, we’ll create a plan to overcome barriers and reach your goals.
