My Approach
My passion and dedication to the work is evident upon our first meeting. My positive energy stems from the belief that change is possible and I come to restore hope. I provide an open, compassionate and non judgmental space for my clients to explore their past and present lives. Collaboratively, we work together, at your pace, to obtain the goals that you identify.
I believe that parenting is a journey that we undertake without a map and, at times, along the way, we all get lost and need to find our way back and/or create new paths because we want to change the patterns of parenting we acquired from our own parents. I give guidance and assistance as you navigate through your own parenting journey. Together we can make positive change.
Maternal Mental Health
According to the Center for Disease Control, 11 to 20% of women who give birth each year have postpartum depression symptoms. If you settled on an average of 15% of four million live births in the US annually, this would mean approximately 600,000 women get Postpartum Depression each year in the United States alone.
My top priority is preserving your parent-child relationship, and my greatest strength is my ability to see connections and patterns that are key to resolving your family’s difficulties and discord.
Child Play Therapy
All children exhibit what adults might call "abnormal behavior" from time to time. Many times these behaviors are nothing to worry about and sometimes go away as quickly as they came. However, sometimes these behaviors are indicators of a child in distress or a more serious underlying problem. Some children may experience difficulties coping with events like a move or a change in schools, and some life events like divorce, death of a loved one, and trauma, are almost always difficult for a child.
Adolescent Work
Is your teenager going through a hard time? Or giving you a hard time?
Raising teenagers can be stressful!
Sometimes no matter what you’ve tried it only seems to drive your teenager further away. Your heart aches as you watch anxiety and sadness overtake your kid’s life. You want your teen to have healthy relationships but he or she isn’t eager to listen to you.
I know that figuring out and navigating the teen years can be challenging for both parents and youths.
And I don’t want you to navigate the adolescent years alone.
