My passion lies in helping young people feel seen, understood, and empowered as they navigate emotions, relationships, and personal growth. I specialize in working with children and teens up to 18 years old. My specialties include anxiety, depression, Autism, ADHD, behavioral issues in children, and trauma/PTSD. My professional background includes school-based therapy services, outpatient therapy, and community-based services where I worked as a therapist for adults with mental health and substance use challenges. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I use evidence-based practices tailored to each child’s developmental level and unique personality, creating a safe space where they can express themselves freely. I also work closely with caregivers, recognizing that meaningful change happens when families feel supported.
