Mission
My mission is to provide specialized individual and family counseling to children, adolescents and adults. I provide consultation and supervision services and trainings to other professionals. I believe it is essential to cultivate a safe space for all humans as they experience difficulties on their journey in life. I especially love working with caregivers who have children with challenging behaviors.
