I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in working with teens and their families. I began my career in mental health in residential treatment facilities providing individual and group therapy to teens involved in juvenile probation programs. My clients at the time struggled with high acuity behaviors such as aggression, suicidality, depression, anxiety and substance abuse. For the past 12 years I have worked for a community based non-profit organization, that partners with Social Services and Juvenile probation, providing Wrap-Around services. Throughout the years I have held many roles: clinician, therapist, program supervisor, and clinical supervisor. I have supported families at some of their most challenging times, and have had the opportunity to witness their strength and determination to make shifts that change their lives for the better. 

As a therapist I work to develop a strong therapeutic relationship to foster safety and trust. Through a non-judgmental approach, I will foster an environment to allow exploration of your personal challenges, emotions, and beliefs; utilizing your inner strength to cultivate growth and personal transformation.
