There is a lot of anxiety and uncertainty during these times. Voicing your stress and receiving support and validation in return can relieve some of that weight off your shoulders. Finding healthy ways to cope and allowing the time to focus on your needs are what we can do together to bring more stability into your life. As a counselor and art therapist, you will find yourself in an environment that centers on your self-growth and empowerment through talk therapy and creative expression. Neurodivergence, the recognition of more brain functioning than the neurotypical standard, is also a core practice you'll find with me. I believe that adolescents are incredible human beings who should be treated with the same empathetic care as adults. I’m great at communicating concepts like anxiety, boundaries, consent, emotions, and self-esteem in ways they understand. I also focus on providing support and coping skills for ADHD. You are a unique individual living within different environmental and cultural systems, and these systems play a role in creating the patterns you've developed in your past and present. As a team, we can create new patterns that will promote the changes you want. Let's improve your quality of life. We'll celebrate your victories along the way.
