Sometimes things beyond our control affect the way our lives function: loss, stress, trauma, and change take their toll on our self esteem and feelings of well being.

Therapy can help us return to our optimal functioning by identifying places we are emotionally ‘stuck’ and areas of needed growth.

My approach to therapy is collaborative. You and I work together to identify your strengths and to develop new skills. My practice focuses on therapy with children and their families, and I have specialized training in trauma work, child development, parenting and positive behavior management. I have worked with infants, toddlers, preschool children, school-aged children, adolescents, their parents and adults in community mental health settings, schools, and currently in private practice.

I work with different ages and types of people depending upon their needs and what therapeutic approach (or a combination) works best for them.

My practice is located within the offices of Collaborative Family Therapy, an association of independent practitioners and not a partnership. There is no implied or expressed professional or business relationship between practitioners within the clinic.
