Adolescents

I provide therapy working with minorities including BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities including adolescents, young adults, and adoptive families. I specialize in brainspotting, exposure and response prevention, and play therapy when working with anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, and ADHD. In addition, I use a compassionate lens to create more understanding for these parts of ourselves.

I work with youth in foster care ages 14-24 years of age providing after-care services. We individualize our services by meeting youth where they are at. We do this by developing a plan that encompasses a youth’s dreams, goals, and aspirations for their life during and after foster care.
