In looking for a therapist, the knowledge and experience of the therapist is key. Another essential element is the fit between you and the therapist. Additionally, when working with children and adolescents, it is vital that there is fit between the child and therapist, as well as the parent and therapist.  

I describe myself as a "feelings coach", working with children, adolescents and adults to identify, communicate, and cope with feelings in a healthy way. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to equip you with ways of thinking differently about a situation and empower you with new coping skills. I am solution oriented and implement mindfulness to relieve symptoms and to reduce emotional reactivity to stressors. With children, Play Therapy may be incorporated into our work together. I also work with parents to collaboratively support the child.  I ultimately tailor therapy to meet each individual’s needs, because while the symptoms may be similar, each person is unique.
