In-home services

I work with individuals who may find a therapy office setting not beneficial. I use in-home and in-community work to use real time experiences to make therapeutic progress.

I engage in the client's preferred activities with them to promote healing, learning of new behaviors, and new communication patterns. The use of these experiential techniques often leads to improvement promptly.

The Goal
My Approach
Secure, confident individuals and families are not born, but created. Keeping in mind children only have one childhood - I help children, teenagers, and families heal from trauma and fractured relationships by processing distressing emotions and experiences.

Children and teens are often unable to communicate their emotions in a meaningful way, often leaving the parents feeling lost and disrespected. This may create tension and arguments in the house, only leaving the family feeling more disconnected from one another.

As a parent you may feel you have tried everything or you may feel you have no idea where to start.  

Due to my extensive training in trauma-informed and attachment-based work, our work will be relational based, and together we will help you develop insight and create tools that provide meaningful long lasting relationships and increase fulfillment in life. We will use real life environments to engage in therapeutic techniques in the present moment.

Being a child, teen, or parent in this world is difficult. Things are always changing and there are many things we have no control over. We can only change how we perceive events and feelings to allow us to live our happiest lives but only in connection with others.

As humans, we have a natural desire to connect and that is where the deepest healing occurs.

It is your birthright to live in peace and harmony.
I can help you make peace with your past and reclaim your truest self.
