Today's world is too often scary and overwhelming. For many of us, learning to function & adapt in life as a child, teen or young adult is confusing & difficult. These challenges lead to feeling lonely, frustrated or hopeless. Through our work together, you will become confident in yourself, begin to not just 'get by', but thrive. You will begin to experience a life where being you is more than good enough. Unavoidable challenges become opportunities & you gain control of the most important area, yourself. Working together, you will become equipped to navigate day to day life & the unexpected, emerging stronger, smarter & happier.
I am passionate about helping children, teens & young adults understand their emotions through play therapy & cognitive behavior therapy, within a family systems approach. I have valuable experience helping children and families deal with grief, behavioral issues, stress, depression, trauma, & school-related issues.
Working with Wellspring Therapeutic Partners means I regularly consult with our team of prescribers and psychologists who specialize in a variety of areas. I can provide seamless referrals for medication management, psychological testing, therapy for loved ones or other household members, groups & EMDR services as needed and appropriate.

Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?
One of my passions as a therapist is helping people overcome their challenges, and improve their mental well-being. I do my best to create a safe and supportive environment where individuals can explore their feelings and struggles without judgment. My motivation as a therapist is witnessing the progress my clients have made and that I was able to provide what they were looking for. The amount of progress clients have made continues to inspire me.
For people that are hesitant to try therapy, what do you wish you could tell them?
To those who are hesitant to try therapy, I understand that it can feel intimidating or scary to open up and seek help. Just like you'd consult a doctor for physical ailment, therapy can be a valuable resource for your mental and emotional well-being. Therapy is a safe space where you can freely express your thoughts. Therapy is not solely about addressing problems; it can also be a catalyst for personal growth and pro mechanisms, enhancing self-esteem and gaining self-awareness. Therapy can empower you to lead a happier and more fulfilling life.
What should people thinking about working with you, know about you?
Anyone who is considering me as their therapist should know that I grew up going to therapy and have experienced both effective and ineffective therapists in my life. My priority is making sure the client feels their needs are being met and if not figuring out what I need to do differently for them. I have a wide range of experience and continue to educate myself on different skills.
