I specialize in children, preteens, and teens. I started my career as a school counselor and will always keep room on my caseload for our youth. I started ITSCO to give more school-aged children an opportunity to see skilled, licensed, and dedicated therapists to meet their needs.

I have experience with students as they experience pre-deployment, deployment, and post-deployment in group settings where they are able to build relationships and bonds with others experiencing the same situation. I have worked with youth as they have advocated their identity and then supported their needs as they have “come out” to their loved ones.

As a therapist, my role is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals with personality disorders to explore their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. I can help them understand the underlying causes of their difficulties and work towards developing healthier coping mechanisms and improved interpersonal skills. Treatment often involves long-term therapy, such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) or cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT).

I have always wanted to work with adolescents! Because of my own experiences with anxiety and the military, I would love to work with adolescents who have anxiety issues or are in military families.

Giving young people the space to talk and helping them develop skills to manage anxiety, military struggles, or any other mental health issues are deeply important to me.

I aim to create a safe space where clients can share their worries and fears without judgment or punishment. I focus on helping them reshape negative thought patterns and develop strategies to achieve their goals.

I offer a safe space for my clients, drawing from my own experiences with ADHD, learning difficulties, and trauma. I provide empathy to those who may feel misunderstood and different. I meet clients where they are and focus on the key aspects of their needs: eyes, eyebrows, mouth, and body language. Many clients may lack the communication skills to express their needs, but the ability to understand and anticipate their next move is something that comes naturally to me. As a behavior skills builder, learning my clients' tells is crucial to my work.

I am deeply inspired to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives and guide clients toward personal growth.
