I specialize in working with children, adolescents, teens, and young adults with behavior issues, mental health conditions such as: ADHD, ADD, anxiety, depression, Bipolar, Schizophrenia, personality disorders, and substance abuse disorder. I utilize an eclectic therapy approach. Counseling modalities such as: child-play therapy, person-centered therapy, cognitive behavior therapy and DBT are my main selections. Clients often tell me that I am relatable, warm and caring. I am a mother of two boys (12yr old and 5yr old). I enjoy attending church, exercising with friends, self care days and helping others.
