My clients describe me as:

I help clients determine what their specific goals are for therapy, what is getting in the way of reaching them, and how to remove those obstacles.

I specialize in working with people who:

I specialize in families with teens who have been challenging and maybe have already been through a few therapists. I can work with the parents as a coach, the whole family, or just the teen. Suiciality and self-harm are my specialty.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I am not afraid to say if something isn't working and change how I work. I like to talk about what has worked before and build from that.
