She works with individuals who are navigating parenting concerns, adoption and foster care questions, attention differences, and relationship or communication problems.

Mindfulness skills are introduced to help with stress, anger, and moment-to-moment coping. These tools are presented in simple, practical ways that people can try between sessions.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's goals. Online sessions let the therapist and client talk through a person’s story and priorities, and then plan steps that feel doable. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people spot thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going, and online sessions can guide practice of new skills and homework between meetings. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing techniques to reduce stress and support emotion regulation, which can be introduced and practiced during remote meetings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, and she adjusts plans as progress is made. The focus is on practical steps and on building tools the person can use outside sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people try techniques between meetings and review progress with regular scheduling that fits their routine.
