Using the power of play is so important when working with children families. I have found that using play-based interventions and activities to be very effective in helping children and families to resolve and heal. And it is a way to meet children where they are at developmentally. My areas of specialty are working with birth and adoptive families. I am trained in Therapy and Filial therapy, which uses play-based activities and interventions with families, sand tray, and attachment-based therapies. I am skilled at working with children who are struggling at home and at school.

I am an adoption, attachment, and trauma-competent therapist with 22 years of clinical experience. I am truly passionate and excited about the work that I do. I am continually learning by attending professional webinars and workshops to be able to. As an adoptive mother, I understand the joys and challenges of being a parent. I am non-judgmental but supporting in offering parenting support.

I currently have openings to work with your family.
