​
I believe that therapy needs to be individualized in order to meet each person’s need. I strive to create an environment that is inviting in order to provide a therapeutic relationship that allows trust and safety. I use a client-centered approach to therapy in order to allow each client to identify personal goals that address their needs. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families using a variety of approaches including talk therapy, Play Therapy, and sand tray therapy. I am a Registered Play Therapist - Supervisor and a Level II Certified AutPlay Therapy Provider, a Play Therapy and Behavioral Therapy based approach to working with children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, neurodevelopmental disorders, and other developmental disabilities.
