History
I have always loved working with kids. I started my practice on College ave because I see a need in the community to have someone who specializes in this field. I am truly honored to be working with families to help get kids back on track.
Specialties
I am a licensed psychotherapist specializing in child and teen counseling. Families come to my practice feeling lost, worried and some at the recommendation of a school counselor, lawyer, friend or pediatrician. Many parents have read multiple books and tried various interventions at home or at school without success. This can feel frustrating and upsetting, although it is a motivating starting place. What these families all have in common is concern for a child who is struggling in some way and in need of a child counselor. I offer child counseling, family counseling, family mediation, reunification therapy, and parent support. For reunification therapy support, visit reunificationtherapyonline.com My orientation is psychodynamic with play therapy to understand what motivates children's behavior. I give direct feedback and insightful guidance while working on specific goals. My style is empathic, free of judgment, and tailored toward actionable lasting changes.
