My communication style

I prioritize creating a non-judgmental, safe space for my clients. I value honest, open communication because without it, I cannot help you achieve your goals. With child clients, I use a playful but purposeful style to help them feel at ease. With parents and caregivers, my style is collaborative, respectful, and informative.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always felt a calling to be an advocate for children and families. I'm passionate about working with children because early intervention can change the course of a young person's life. Helping a child understand their feelings, develop healthy coping skills, and build self-esteem lays the foundation for lifelong mental wellness.

My goals for you

I enjoy helping clients set and reach treatment goals through a collaborative and ongoing process. We set goals that are specific, measurable, and realistic. I encourage active participation by helping my clients take ownership of their progress. I check in often, and we may modify goals along the way.

Our first session

A first session with me is designed to be warm, welcoming, and pressure-free for both the child and their caregiver. My goal is to create a safe and comfortable environment where trust can begin to form, and where the child feels seen, heard, and respected.
