Parent Coaching

Parenting is no joke! We have to manage behavior, set limits, and have realistic expectations for our children, all while trying to take care of ourselves too! Children thrive with consistency and structure. But what are the rules and limits that are the right ones for your child? We are often comparing ourselves and our family to others, through social media or the community, but only you as the parent truly knows what your child needs. 

Sometimes children present with challenging behaviors and a parent seeks out support or therapy for the child to resolve these issues. However, children are then left to return to the same environment, which hasn’t made any changes. My expertise allows me to work with my clients through a systemic lens, enabling parents to make the needed changes for their children to be most successful.

Parents find faster success and feel empowered when their own changes create a safer environment for their children and more peace at home. In working with me, parents gain tangible techniques and strategies to use in times of need.

Becoming comfortable in your parenting style or getting on the same page as your partner is challenging. If you need help creating structure, setting limits, and developing healthy boundaries, I am here for you.  Our work will focus on making mindful decisions based on your own values and desired outcomes.

Family Therapy

Families often enter into dysfunctional cycles of communication. This may involve lots of screaming, yelling, and chaos. Or, you may feel alone despite living in a full house. My job is to break that cycle. Through our therapeutic work, each family member will feel secure in expressing their wants and needs and feel heard by one another. Our work together is individualized to meet the needs and goals of your family.

After working with me, families express an increased sense of ease within the family dynamics. Each family member feels heard and understood. Each individual develops improved communication skills and connection.

Play Therapy for Children

Play is a specialized and unique way for children to express themselves. At a young age, children can struggle to express or identify their big feelings. Play provides them with a way to engage and express their experiences without some of the complications of talk therapy. 

Through a safe therapeutic space, children can process trauma, increase understanding of big feelings, develop healthier ways to communicate, and learn coping skills.

Counseling for Children   

My work with children focuses on allowing the child to identify their thoughts and feelings while finding healthy ways to express themselves. Children often struggle to appropriately express themselves which may lead to inappropriate behaviors to get their point across.

Early intervention with children is so important as it can prevent more persistent long term emotional problems. The caregivers' involvement in therapy is imperative at this age. Together, we will cultivate skills that leave you feeling confident and competent. 

Adolescence is a perfect age to begin therapeutic services. Whether for a specific need or just to have a positive relationship with a therapist, adolescents have lots of feelings, thoughts, and ideas to be shared. A therapist ensures an adolescent feels heard and understood, often leading to increased self-esteem and self-worth.

​

Therapy for Teens   

Being a teenager brings its own set of challenges. If you find your teenager is struggling with being bullied, academic performance, stress management, self-confidence, therapy may be the safe space they need. 

Therapy will allow your teen to gain insight and knowledge into their own growing emotions and coping skills. Together, we can create a solid foundation to build on as they transition into their adult life.

​

Counseling for Adults

I strive to provide adults with a non-judgemental space where they can share openly and deeply about themselves and their relationships. I am prepared and ready to help individuals overcome the most challenging of circumstances. These struggles may include trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, and adoption related issues. Together, we will create an individualized approach to identify strengths, overcome barriers and seek aspirations.
