Therapy Services

Children & Adolescents

 

I have a passion for working with children and adolescents to help them create healthy, empowering narratives of themselves. I have experience working with youth that suffer from depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and peer conflict.

Couples

 

Couples enter therapy at all different stages in their relationship and life. My goal is to help guide couples to better manage conflict, improve communication skills, and have more emotional connection.

Families

 

Families are typically the foundation for how we learn and navigate the world. In family therapy, we work to create healthy patterns within the family unit, by strengthening parenting and creating stronger bonds.

Individuals

 

I work with individuals of all ages. I use a strength-based approach to help guide clients to recognize and utilize their own strengths to overcome challenges. I have experience working with adults with relational concerns, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and life transitions.
