My Approach

When you work with me, you will be safe and cared for; after all, the crux of counseling is a relationship. My approach is one of healing through relationship. I believe that the counseling relationship gives people the chance to experience healthy relationships. I will walk with you (or your children) through whatever difficulty you may be facing. If you're considering me to work with your child, they will be treated as precious, unique, and, as with all of us, a beautiful work in progress.

 

I am EMDR certified and believe in the brain's ability to heal. I believe that the past is present, and to understand what is happening currently, we must look at what has come before. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and adoption/foster care issues, but I am equipped for other diagnoses as well. I also utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with adults and prefer play therapy with children.​
