Are you a parent seeking help for a child or adolescent who has been abused or exposed to trauma? Are you seeking guidance on how to deal with your child’s oppositional behavior, or looking for a therapist experienced in treating anxiety, depression, and adjustment issues in children of all ages? If so, I can help. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in treating children and adolescents from age 5-18. I provide parent coaching and family/behavior interventions for families struggling with oppositional behaviors, and use a mix of CBT and play therapy to help children struggling with adjustment issues. I specialize in treating trauma and PTSD in children and adolescents, using TFCBT, the gold standard for child/adolescent trauma treatment. I provide EMDR (the gold standard for treating PTSD in adults) to older adolescent clients, when appropriate, and adult clients who are seeking services. I utilize play therapy and sandtray to supplement trauma work. As a therapist, I believe that each client is capable of getting better, and leading the life they deserve. Life can be hard, but it doesn't have to stay that way. If you're ready to take that first step towards the future, contact me. We'll work together to find the treatment and approach that best helps you and your family. Your road to recovery begins now
