About My Clients
Life can get overwhelming. With so much going on, your mind may be racing and your to-do list never ending. Kids may feel like they have too much going on between school, homework, and activities. Emotions or anxiety may seem out of control. You or your kids feel frustrated, down, worried, discouraged and mentally exhausted. Your relationship is a source of stress. It doesn't seem like anyone understands. You feel suck and don't know what to do next for yourself or with your partner.
My Background and Approach
I'm a Clinical Social Worker and Registered Play Therapist. I'm here to help you or your child/teen feel understood, build confidence, cope, problem solve, and figure things out. I can use creative online tools with all ages so you can fully express yourself and explore emotions or challenges. This can include discussion, mindfulness, relaxation exercises, online sand tray, writing, digital art, or music. Other times, I may provide information and techniques to help you find what works to stop problematic anxiety, depression, painful memories, uncertainty, overwhelm, stressful relationship patterns, communication problems, or other difficulties you experience. In therapy you will gain insight into what is going on and learn to look at things in a different way, a newer way. We'll take practical steps towards creating the life and relationship you want. We'll work through areas you feel stuck to reduce uncertainty. I provide a validating experience where you feel heard and cared about.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am here to listen to you and not judge. I am flexible and down to earth. I am trauma informed and LGBTQA+ and poly friendly. As an HSP I use empathy and compassion, and encourage self-compassion. I focus on the individual so sessions will be unique to you or your child/teen based on what support is needed. As an RPT I use fun and creativity with virtual tools. If you, or your kids, are tired of feeling overwhelmed or unimportant and want to feel calm, confident, and content, contact me. I’ll be there along side you, helping you or your kids learn new tools in fun, relaxing ways to solve problems, manage stress, and make positive changes in yourself and your relationships.
