As a play therapist, I seek to understand your child's world, offering a nurturing and safe space where they can express themselves freely. Through a combination of talk, play, and expressive techniques, we will work collaboratively to navigate challenges, build coping skills, and promote emotional well-being. As a parent myself, I fully believe in partnering with both parents or guardians to create a solid team of support for the child.


With adult clients, my goal is to understand your unique perspective, experiences, and emotions, providing an open and supportive environment. Together, we will explore your goals, concerns, and challenges to promote self-awareness and personal growth. The therapeutic relationship is crucial, and my role is to facilitate a journey where you feel heard, accepted, and empowered to make choices that align with your values. I take a holistic approach with my clients, addressing the needs of the mind, body, and soul throughout treatment.


In my free time I enjoy being with family and friends. I love going out to eat, watching the latest Marvel movie with my son, and crafting. I have one dog named Buddy and I'm hoping to adopt more in the near future!
