How Can I Help?

I believe that everyone wants to be heard and seen. During life’s difficult moments, a sense of humor can make the process more bearable. While working with children and teens over the years, I have learned that listening actively, demonstrating transparency, and acting respectfully allow me to earn trust and build strong therapeutic relationships with my clients. I believe that a trusting relationship is crucial, but it’s not the whole story. Children and teens need coaching, honest explorations of their struggles, and concrete skills to move forward and grow. To help my clients become unstuck and thrive, I draw from a variety of therapeutic models, such as supportive therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness practice, strength-based approaches, and psychodynamic (talk) therapy.
