I enjoy working with elementary ages and preteens who are experiencing difficulties in managing anxiety, mood, attention, and learning disorders. I utilize a person-centered approach, and often incorporate play and art in the therapeutic process. With excitement, encouragement, and compassion, I form therapeutic relationships with clients and families so that positive change can occur. 

In my free time, I love to read and typically finish about 3 books per week. You can often find me spending time with family and friends both traveling and at our cabin. Being outdoors brings me joy!
