I have been counseling for over 13 years, working mostly with children, adolescents, and young adults (ages 18-30) in helping them work through emotional issues, peer or school-related issues, and family concerns. My specialty areas of focus range from anxiety, depression, self-harm, self-esteem, defiance and anger management, spiritual journeys, grief, and conflict within the family system. I also like to focus on areas of wellness and take a holistic approach in one's care. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, play-based therapy, psychoeducation, and expressive arts therapy in counseling sessions.
