About My Clients
In my work with young people between 5 and 18, I see even the youngest among us as individuals with their own valid wants, needs, and beliefs. None of us lives in a vacuum, and I encourage clients to include family members in their sessions. I am also happy to coordinate with other treatment providers and with schools.
My Background and Approach
My approach is trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming, meaning I work with clients on both developing coping skills for a world that can be unfriendly to diverse minds and experiences and on unapologetically celebrating unique ways of thinking and being. Therapy sessions with me may include play, art, games, other hands-on activities, family sessions, and traditional talk therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
When I was a kid, my dad told me, “Always remember: you’re unique, just like everyone else.” I believe in honoring each client’s unique stories and identities. We grow when we can appreciate our strengths and face our challenges without judgment. Together, we can work on managing challenging behaviors, coping with difficult emotions, building support systems, and processing difficult experiences.
