My approach to therapy is grounded in curiosity, consistency, and connection. I specialize in working with kids, teens, and young adults navigating big emotions, tough transitions, or moments when the world just feels hard to handle.

Whether you’re:

  • A young person struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, or low self-esteem,

  • A teen navigating peer stress, identity questions, or family tension,

  • A parent looking for support around emotional regulation, behavior challenges, or school issues,

  • A college student facing burnout, pressure to perform, or feelings of disconnection…

…I aim to create a space where young people feel seen, respected, and safe to show up as their full selves—whether they’re talkative, quiet, silly, skeptical, or somewhere in between.

What I Bring to Our Work Together:

  • A developmentally attuned approach that adapts to each stage of childhood and adolescence.

  • A playful, creative lens for younger kids and a collaborative, strengths-based style for teens and young adults.

  • Experience supporting clients with trauma, attachment disruptions, and emotional dysregulation.

  • Tools from evidence-based approaches like CBT, play therapy, and mindfulness—blended with a relational foundation.

  • A commitment to working closely with parents and caregivers when appropriate, without losing sight of the child or teen’s voice.

If you’re seeking a therapist who can meet your child or teen with patience, flexibility, and genuine care, I’m here.
