I have considerable experience working with clients in their homes, schools, and multicultural settings. These past experiences have provided me the unique ability to bridge work in counseling to these settings and ultimately make your counseling experience more successful. 

I have extensive training in Sand and Play Therapy.I am also trained to deal with the following medical conditions:

• Autism

• ADHD

• Anxiety

• Depression

In addition, I am skilled at working with a variety of human issues facing individuals today, including:

• Stress

• Teen Angst

• Bullying

• Divorce/Separation- child coping

• LGBTQ

• Separation Anxiety

• Social Skills

• Anger Management for children

• Conduct Behavior Problems

• Parent Coaching for - Preschool through Teens​

• Self-Esteem

• Communication skills

Jungian, psychodynamic, family systems, and narrative theories have been a great inspiration to me both personally and professional, and I find that great healing occurs when one is empowered to tell/retell their own stories.  I adore working with children, and I have a great rapport with my clients and their families. My clients have told me that I'm kind, trustworthy, and fun, and I really connect well with "quirky" and "weird" kids.   I am AutPlay certified as well as LGBTQ affirming, and I love exploring the strengths and uniqueness in all of the clients I work with.
