My Services
Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy, or talk therapy, is a space for individuals to reflect, process, and work through life’s challenges. It begins with a trusting, supportive relationship between therapist and client—one built on safety, acceptance, and respect.
In this space, you’re invited to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment. Together, we work to help you feel better, gain clarity, resolve daily life struggles more effectively, and make meaningful shifts in how you think, feel, and respond to the world around you.
Play Therapy
Play Therapy offers clients a gentle and natural way to express what they’re feeling inside. While adults often talk through their problems, children—and even teens—tend to use play to make sense of their world. Through play, they can explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a way that feels safe and familiar. In play therapy, we might use toys, art, storytelling, or games—whatever speaks your child’s language. These tools help them share what’s on their mind, even when they don’t have the words. It’s a supportive space where they can feel seen, heard, and understood just as they are.
Counseling for Children, Teens and adults
From the unique challenges of early childhood to the complexities of adolescence and adulthood, I provide compassionate, specialized counseling tailored to every age group.
- Children: Through play and creative therapies, I help children express feelings they can't yet put into words, addressing behavioral issues, anxiety, and family transitions in a comfortable, engaging way.
- Teens: I create a safe space for adolescents to navigate identity formation, peer pressure, stress, and mood changes, fostering resilience and improving family communication.
- Adults: I collaborate with adults to address stress, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and relational concerns, helping you build insight, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and create a more fulfilling life.
Couple/Family Therapy
I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where both partners/family members can feel heard and understood. We will work collaboratively to improve communication skills and break unhealthy patterns; resolve conflicts constructively rather than combatively; rebuild trust and intimacy after betrayal or disconnection; strengthen your emotional bond and create a more satisfying partnership.
Parent Coaching
Parent Coaching focuses on you—your strengths, challenges, and goals as a parent. Together, we’ll explore how your parenting style, beliefs, expectations, and emotional responses have been shaped over time. I’ll support you in developing new skills and practical strategies that help you align your intentions with your actions, so you can create meaningful and lasting changes in your parenting.
Parent and Children Relationship Consultation
Through therapy, parents and their children, gain deeper understanding of one another, improve communication, and develop healthier ways of resolving conflict and managing stress.
