About My Clients

I love working with kids, teens, families and those struggling with addiction. My passion is being able to walk along side people to help explore the things that hurt, challenge, and hold you back. I love being a safe space for the most challenging teen, hopeless adult, or desperate family for whom therapy hasn’t been successful in the past and getting to see a brick in the wall come down and a sparkle reappear in their eyes. With the right approach, I believe everyone can benefit from therapy.

My Background and Approach

For 20+ years I've worked with kids, teens, adults & families in the most acute settings including residential treatment centers, outpatient/IOP clinics, in partnership with juvenile probation, and as part of intensive in-home/in-school crisis and behavioral support teams. I've had tremendous success helping youth and adults find renewed hope, improve coping skills, overcome addiction & self-harm, and improve relationships and functioning at home, school and with others. I love to work collaboratively to set goals and teach skills to help make life better. I believe there isn't a one size fits all approach to therapy and I pride myself in very down to earth approach and willingness to think outside the box and meet you where you're at to find a path to change.
