Your child is struggling, and I'm here to help. I work with kids and teens navigating anxiety, ADHD, big emotions, and social challenges, while partnering with parents who feel stuck or overwhelmed. Together, we move beyond symptom management to building real resilience.
From toddler through the teen years, every family needs the right tools. Let's find yours.
To help young people and their families create happier, healthier lives where resilience can take root and flourish.
I work directly with kids and teens to help them build skills and confidence, while collaborating closely with parents to support their child's growth at home. This partnership ensures lasting change that extends beyond our sessions.
What Kids Discover
Age-appropriate tools for navigating difficult times.
How to move through anxiety when it spikes (not just "take deep breaths")
Making sense of your ADHD brain and how to work with it
Managing depression and finding motivation when everything feels hard
Understanding and handling big emotions without shame
What your nervous system needs to feel steady or recharge
Strategies to navigate social challenges and friendship drama
Finding your confidence and discovering your strengths
What Parents Learn
Practical support that fits your real life and parent coaching.
Understanding your child's anxiety, ADHD, or big emotions (and why typical parenting may not work)
Language and communication that connects instead of escalates
How to find your calm when you're both overwhelmed
Ways to support without fixing or rescuing
Prioritizing your own emotional health so you can show up for your kids
Building confidence while releasing parenting guilt
When to step in and when to step back
Creating routines and boundaries that actually stick
I blend evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and PCIT to create an approach that fits your family. Rather than rigid protocols, we'll discover which strategies actually help improve thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in your daily life. For kids and teens, I use play and creative activities to keep therapy engaging.
