My goal is to help children become their best selves by providing them with a safe and nurturing space to grow. It is important to me that my clients enjoy the process of learning about themselves, gaining skills, and bettering their lives. I use art, games, nature and specific client interests to help build connections with the children and adolescents I work with. While I do see children and adolescents in session, I regularly involve parents and siblings in the therapeutic process and I connect with school professionals when ever necessary. I am passionate about helping children with Selective Mutism, OCD, anxiety and other behavioral disorders.
