Life is full of unpredictable experiences and emotions, but you don’t need to deal with them alone. You deserve to be seen and cared for as you are, and your goals for yourself will be what we address together in our sessions. While my clients come to me with a wide variety of concerns, I am especially passionate about helping clients work through anxiety, body image, parenting, and life transitions. I also specialize in working with young children and teens.
I tend to take a non-directive approach with my clients, allowing them to lead me to the places that need care, attention, and new perspectives. I also include approaches like self-compassion, attachment theory, mindfulness, sandtray, and creative expression. If you are looking for counseling for your adolescent or child, I see clients of all ages. As a Registered Play Therapist, I love using a playful approach to help young children process their emotions. I also enjoy working with teens, who often need a safe place to wrestle with their identity and with the complex emotions that show up in adolescence.
When I am not with clients, I enjoy crocheting, playing board games, reading mysteries, and spending time with my family. And there is always a good chance I am enjoying a cup of tea during any of those activities!
