CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS Are you concerned about changes in your child's behavior? Perhaps your child's teacher, school counselor, or pediatrician has suggested he or she be seen by a therapist. Maybe you have tried everything and nothing seems to work. I specialize in working with struggling children and teenagers, and the adults in their lives who need support too! I have extensive experience working with children ages 2 1/2 - 18, and advanced training treating behavior problems with ages 2 1/2 - 6. My approach to counseling is positive, strengths based, relationship focused, and often includes art, play, and laughter. We all have our parenting "bag of tools" that we use. Sometimes, those tools are no longer effective. I will work with your family to strengthen and develop skills, increase positive communication, and manage problem behaviors so that your family can feel more connected, have fun, and enjoy life.
