About My Clients
I work with children, teens, and adults, offering support for ADHD, autism, and anxiety. My clients are unique individuals seeking understanding as they navigate their personal journeys. Children learn to express their feelings, teens tackle life transitions, and adults manage daily stressors. I provide a warm, safe space for exploration and growth, empowering each person to develop resilience and self-awareness. Together, we’ll create a path toward your goals and cultivate a brighter future.
My Background and Approach
As a clinical social worker with 15 years of experience, I bring wisdom and compassion to my practice. My approach is rooted in a deep understanding of neurodivergence, and I specialize in connecting with children through play therapy and art therapy. These creative modalities allow young clients to express their feelings in a safe and engaging way, facilitating healing and self-discovery. I also utilize brainspotting, an innovative technique that helps address trauma by tapping into the brain’s natural healing processes. This method is especially effective for adults who have experienced significant emotional challenges, providing a pathway to relief and understanding. My warm, friendly demeanor creates a nurturing environment where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts and feelings. I balance gentleness with the encouragement to face challenges, helping clients build resilience and confidence.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in the power of strengths and empowerment to drive personal growth and healing. My approach emphasizes curiosity and innovation, encouraging clients to explore new perspectives and discover their inner resilience. I view therapy as a collaborative journey where playfulness and laughter can foster connection and lighten heavy moments, making the process enjoyable and impactful. As a high school color guard coach, I witness firsthand how teamwork and creativity can empower young individuals to thrive. I also find joy in my roles as a parent to two young children and a dog owner, where play and exploration are central to our lives. My love for the performing arts and traveling inspires my approach, reminding me of the beauty in diverse experiences and voices. I am passionate about social justice, believing that everyone deserves equitable access to mental health resources. Together, we'll cultivate an inclusive space where you feel value, understanding and support.
