.My counseling style is engaging, collaborative, and flexible. I provide assessment and counseling services that are strengths-based and help people harness their inner resources to heal and grow. I believe cultivating healthy relationships, strong community support, and a healthy sense of self are essential to making lasting positive changes.

In my opinion, a strong, trusting therapeutic alliance is vital to successful treatment. As we work together we will draw on your innate strengths and interests and use them to overcome your presenting challenges.

I provide mental health services primarily to teenagers and children with mood issues, behavioral concerns, and poor impulse control. I also work with families that have been affected by discrimination or trauma. I have advanced training in family systems therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, and psychodynamic approaches. I provide personalized treatment and encourage clients to use alternative forms of expression such as journaling, expressive arts, or music.
