About

My therapy practice focuses on helping children, adolescents and young adults overcome difficuties with self-esteem, depression, trauma, life transitions, anxiety, attention issues or school-related concerns. While working with children and teens, I closely collaborate with caregivers, building communication and trust. I know there is nothing more important in a child’s development than their parent relationship. If you are struggling with how best to parent your child in this moment, I am here to process those feelings and problem-solve together. I use a mixed-modality approach including mindfulness, CBT, and play therapy, from an attachment-based and trauma-informed lens. Together, we learn and practice new coping skills and healthier perspectives for handling stress and uncertainty. I especially enjoy working with individuals during transitions, like puberty, family changes, or starting college.
