As a social worker for more than 30 years, I provide therapeutic and play therapy services to children and teens ages 9-19 who experience a broad range of issues. My approach is collaborative, designed to help people feel better and function more effectively. I offer a safe space and an empathetic and understanding ear for all. I use solutions-focused and cognitive behavior techniques, which are designed to strengthen coping skills and instill changes in behavior, thoughts and emotions. Creating a sense of safety and connection is of the utmost importance to me. When people feel seen and heard, change and growth begins. I strive to hold such a space for each and every one of my clients as well as stand with them as they grow and thrive.
