I have worked with a variety of clients but my passion is helping families. Back in grad school I swore I would never work with kids and one random encounter changed me forever. Elementary school age are definitely who I have the most experience with, working as a school based therapist with Pre-K thru 6th grade. But over the years I have worked with middle schooler, high schoolers, and parents.
I am a strong believer that families should be actively involved in therapy with their kids. The therapy office is a safe space to connect and make try things differently that you can then take home with you to practice and fine tune.
