My Approach to Helping
I have been working with children, adolescents, and their families for almost 20 years. As a parent myself, I'm very familiar with the growing pains of growing families with growing children. Each new day can be a new adventure, whether we want it to be or not. I can assist you and your child(ren) and offer support as you navigate through the ups and downs of family life an
d parenting. I have extensive experience working with early childhood social-emotional development (birth to age 5). This includes the ability and eagerness to provide coaching/consulting in your home or at your child's child care center or other setting. I also have extensive experience working with school-aged children who struggle socially and academically due to ADHD, ASD, anxiety, depression, trauma history, family conflicts, etc. I believe it's 'easier to build a child than to repair an adult.' Building a resilient child begins at birth. Fostering resilience in your children through effective parenting is a gift they will always have, and will pass down to their own children some day.

How Psychotherapy Can Help
Children don't come with instruction manuals. Navigating through the different stages of your child's life can be exciting and rewarding, but can also leave your feeling drained, overwhelmed, and unsure about what to do next. I can coach you on effective parenting strategies that will help you become the parent you want to be. My View on the Purpose of Psychotherapy
Having access to a new and unbiased perspective, such as one provided by a therapist, can help a person move beyond difficult or problematic circumstances to a more fulfilling way of living. Services I Provide
