About My Clients
I'm passionate about working with children (5+), teens, and young adults. I work with a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, life transitions, school problems, and relationship difficulties. I especially love working with "people pleasers" and folx who are feeling pressure from every aspect of their life. If you struggle with perfectionism, boundary-setting, or self-advocacy, we might be a great fit!
My Background and Approach
I'm entering my 2nd year as a clinician and while that may make some folx wary, I think being new to this field is one of my greatest strengths. I receive ongoing supervision to hold myself accountable and continue refining my therapeutic skills. I use child-centered play therapy with all clients under the age of 11 because this is the most widely researched, effective modality with kiddos. For my older clients I like to use a strengths-based, solution-focused model. While there is always space to explore the past in session, I like to refocus our time towards the future. What small, tangible steps can you take to create change? Even the tiniest change is still change! I like sessions to feel laid back and comfortable. I have art supplies if that's your jam! Our office is equipped with hot beverages, weighted and non-weighted blankets, fidgets, and soft lighting.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am LGBTQ+ affirming and welcoming to all different backgrounds/identities. I am a secular therapist and do NOT provide any sort of "reparative therapy". I respect everyone's unique religious beliefs and understand how that plays into who you are as an individual.
