About

You want the best for your child—and you’re doing your best. But despite your love and care, you’re noticing signs that your child is struggling. Big emotions, behavioral outbursts, or changes in mood or performance can leave you feeling overwhelmed, worried, and unsure of how to help. Your child may be experiencing anxiety, trauma, family transitions, or social/emotional challenges, and they need a safe, supportive space to process. You want guidance, practical tools, and reassurance that healing is possible. You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. I help children feel seen, heard, and supported—while empowering caregivers with tools and confidence. With 7+ years in schools and nonprofits, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, and Play Therapy, tailoring sessions to each child’s strengths and needs. My approach fosters resilience, emotional language, and healthy coping strategies.
