I believe every child is a precious gift and should be seen and treated as such. Children and adolescents are capable of much more than they often realize. I am dedicated to helping them discover the strength they already have within themselves and develop the skills needed to be successful in achieving their dreams. Children have a natural ability to absorb information, but more often than not need assistance when it comes to interpretation. With that in mind, I create a safe, inviting space for children and youth to have the freedom to explore their thoughts, feelings and beliefs. I use a mixture of strengths-based, solution-focused, faith-based and cognitive behavioral approaches to integrate skills based on the needs of each individual in order to be prepared for a successful adulthood. Life is full of both joy and challenges, and having someone to walk through the inevitably diverse seasons along the journey is imperative. I provide encouragement, support and advocacy so children and youth can fulfill their innate need to be heard and validated. Let's chat about how I can be helpful to you and your family.
