Self Scheduling
Some of the individuals I work best with include kids, teens, young adults, and their parents. They face challenges such as discipline issues, tantrums, relationship difficulties, interpersonal conflict, emotional regulation, and communication struggles. Many also deal with depression, anxiety, social skills deficits, coping issues, and concerns related to autism spectrum disorder. Their primary needs are to manage and reduce problematic behaviors and to navigate their emotions and feelings more effectively. Ideally, they seek to develop better coping strategies, enhance their social skills, and improve overall emotional well-being.
I provide tailored support addressing behavioral, emotional, and developmental challenges. This includes managing behavior and social skills, guidance through stress and peer issues, and assisting young adults with independence, while also helping parents with effective discipline and communication strategies. Past patients have appreciated my ability to show up as a relatable human. Many have shared that they feel comfortable opening up because they sense they are having a genuine conversation rather than being overly analyzed or judged.
Life can present challenging moments, whether you’re dealing with emotions, stress, or personal growth. If you or someone you care about is seeking support, know that I’m here to offer a compassionate, understanding approach. Let’s work together to find positive solutions and navigate these challenges. Reach out when you’re ready-I’m here to support you.

Personal Interests
Outside of the therapy room, I’m all about taking picture of sunsets, writing poetry, and attending concerts. I’m also a dedicated fan of Harry Potter, The Golden Girls, Grey’s Anatomy, and Monk. I believe a little humor and wonder make life sweeter.
