Introduction

Do you have a child or teen who is struggling? I help children, teens, and their parents navigate difficult situations that often occur in their lives. I understand it can be difficult at times to seek mental health treatment, which is why my approach is collaborative.  I work very hard to engage all clients while building a trusting relationship. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with several years of experience working in various mental health settings. I am eager to assist children (including ages four and older), adolescents, adults, and families with a wide range of mental health issues in a comfortable, therapeutic environment.

When working with children and adolescents, I believe in the importance of including family members and support systems in the therapy process. I enjoy assisting clients in identifying their unique individual strengths in order to cope with life stressors.

My practice is family-friendly and affordable. I believe that since life is not overly formal or stuffy, therapy should not be either. I also believe that every client is unique, so treatment needs to be customized for each client. I welcome any family in need of that extra support!

Please don't hesitate to contact me with questions to determine if I might be a good fit! (904) 260-0454
