I am deeply passionate about supporting kids and teens as they navigate life’s challenges. I provide therapy and guidance for kids and teens experiencing anxiety, grief and loss, depression, perfectionism, and the many pressures they face today. I also help them build self-esteem and confidence, develop healthy coping skills, and adjust to changes such as new schools, shifting social dynamics, or family transitions like divorce or conflict at home.

Over the years, I’ve gained a deep appreciation for how unique each kid’s journey is. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. That is why I focus on building trust and safety first. I create a space where kids and teens feel comfortable sharing what they are going through. We work together on their challenges, always at a pace that feels right for them.

In my work, I integrate play, art, and other creative interventions that feel natural and engaging for each person. My goal is to help kids and teens learn lifelong tools to manage their emotions, grow resilience, and feel more like themselves.

I also believe that creating a supportive network around each kid is essential. I work closely with parents and caregivers to help create a supportive environment at home so kids and teens feel heard, supported, and understood.

Personalized Therapy for Kids and Teens

Are you concerned about your kid’s emotions, behaviors, or experiences? Would you like support for your kid or teen related to anxiety, grief and loss, perfectionism, school, friendships, or family issues?

My clients include kids and teens who:

• Struggle with anxiety, excessive worry, or feeling "down"

• Are navigating family transitions (divorce, grief and loss, or conflict at home)

• Struggling with school pressure, learning, or social challenges

• Low self-esteem, poor confidence, or identity questions

• Have difficulty managing and expressing emotions

If your kid’s needs aren’t listed here, please don’t hesitate to reach out. If I’m not the right fit, I’ll do my best to connect you with someone who can help.

A Collaborative Approach to Building Resilience

Therapy gives kids and teens a safe place to understand themselves, build resilience, and learn skills that support them throughout life. When young people learn to work with their emotions early on, they often experience less pain and suffering in the long run as they transition into adulthood. Over time, they begin to feel more confident expressing themselves, setting boundaries, and handling life’s challenges with greater ease and self-trust.

A Note to Parents & Caregivers

Creating a supportive network around your child is essential to their success. I work closely with parents through ongoing consultation sessions to provide guidance and tools to support their child's development. We will discuss effective communication strategies, managing challenging behaviors, and strengthening the overall family dynamic so your child feels supported, heard, and understood at home.

If you’re looking for compassionate, personalized support for your kid or teen, I’m here to help. Together, we can create a path forward where they feel seen, heard, and empowered.
