I am passionate about supporting children and adolescents as they grow, helping them build social-emotional skills and navigate challenges like anxiety, identity, and peer relationships. My background in crisis support, family-focused programming, and ABA therapy with children with autism allows me to bring a compassionate, steady presence to my work with both children and their caregivers. Through my previous experiences providing ABA therapy to children with autism, and educating youth and supporting families through organizations like NAMI (the National Alliance on Mental Illness), I recognize the importance of personalized care that respects each individual’s unique story. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, focusing on actionable strategies for daily life to strengthen emotional regulation and foster a positive environment. I will tailor my sessions to each client’s needs, using evidence-based methods such as motivational interviewing and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT).
