Counseling is one step in the emotional and mental wellness journey.  I am here to take that journey with you.  I am committed to creating a safe, supportive and welcoming space. Through self-exploration and discovery, tapping into inner-strengths, and strengthening of social and emotional skills, I believe we all can have the life we desire and deserve. I have worked with children, adolescents and families in various capacities including school counseling and outpatient counseling. I have experience working with emotional and behavioral concerns, including issues related to social and emotional skills (self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, decision-making), social skills, ADHD, family issues, loss and grief, school success skills, feelings of worry and anxiety. I am passionate about working with young people. I love listening to their thoughts, feelings and helping them make sense of their inner world.  My goal is to support children and adolescents as they build confidence, develop social-emotional skills and navigate the challenges of life.
