I enjoy working with children and their families (and in some cases schools). I collaborate with the children and families to determine needs and to help find their strength in themselves and their relationships and to build on the positives in their lives. I encourage you to reach out to me to determine if we can work together for your healing and goals.

A down-to-earth approach is often what is needed to get to the heart of the struggles in our lives... Relationship issues, psychospiritual growth and feelings of isolation, as well as skillfully working with depression and major life transitions are my specialities.
