Hi there, I'm Edith!

I work with children, adolescents, and young adults overwhelmed by unprocessed emotions. Unaddressed feelings can manifest as irritability, inattention, poor school performance, tantrums, or sleep disturbances. I help young people and parents understand symptoms and use evidence-based strategies that encourage progress.

My focus

I work with children, youth, and young adults managing difficult emotions and developing regulation skills. I specialize in anxiety, sadness, self-harming behaviors, acute stress, post-traumatic stress, school issues, and behavioral concerns. I collaborate with parents and clients to provide empowering tools that foster lifelong changes.

My approach

I support children, adolescents, and young adults from diverse backgrounds who struggle with difficult emotions and trauma. My focus includes culture, environment, family dynamics, and the individual to support healing. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, and interpersonal psychotherapy.
