About
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in Play Therapy and Activity Therapy for children and preadolescents with a variety of presenting concerns. I also works frequently with adolescents and adults in the context of traditional talk therapy. I earned my Master’s Degree in Counseling from the University of North Texas where I trained in Play Therapy, Group Play Therapy, Activity Therapy, Filial Therapy, Group Counseling, and Crisis Intervention. While at UNT, I also trained in Child Parent Relationship Training (CPRT). The goal of CPRT is to strengthen the quality of the parent-child connection to reduce child behavior problems and stress between the parent-child relationship.
My experience working in agency and hospital settings has allowed me to gain comprehensive training in treating clients struggling with trauma, anxiety, grief, depression, divorce, self-esteem, behavioral concerns, and child/parent relationship concerns. I work to meet my clients where they are, supporting their growth toward increased self-awareness, emotional regulation, and reducing their overall distress in a safe nonjudgmental space utilizing aspects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My specialization with children and adolescents involves operating within their developmental abilities utilizing play and activity therapy. I strongly values acceptance, empathy, and genuineness in all of my therapeutic relationships.
I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
