Therapist Overview
I believe that life is to be fully experienced and enjoyed. Too often, the stresses and traumas of life prevent us from stepping into who we really want to be. It’s my passion to come alongside kids, teens, parents, and adults, and support them in their journey towards peace and health. My therapeutic approach begins from a client-centered perspective, which addresses the unique needs of each person. With adults & teens, I primarily work from a cognitive-behavioral framework, assisting clients in identifying and changing harmful thought patterns. I also incorporate DBT Skills as needed. In working with children, I use Child-Centered Play Therapy to help children process trauma, express and regulate emotions, build confidence, and develop social skills. Prior to becoming a counselor, I worked as a high school teacher and enjoyed adapting my classroom for students with specific behavioral or academic needs. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and son, running, trying new recipes, and all things Harry Potter.
