MY APPROACH

My approach is stems from the lens of attachment theory, and I believe that helping young people and their families strengthen their connections is key for healing. I work from a trauma-informed foundation and have worked with children, adolescents and adults who have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, and other general mental health concerns, using a variety of therapeutic modalities.​    As a therapist, I am warm, calm, and adaptable. I work with clients where they are at and adapt to my clients needs throughout each session. My initial goal is to form relationships with my clients and ensure they feel safe and heard. One way I do this is through play. A huge part of being a child (or human), is play. I lean into the therapeutic powers of play and incorporate as much play and playfulness into my sessions with clients of all ages. I often use games, stories, and creative art techniques to initiate, facilitate and deepen the work I do.
