I am a Tribal Foster & Kinship Mental Health Therapist dedicated to supporting children, teens, and families navigating the unique challenges of foster care, kinship care, and permanency. My work is grounded in an attachment-focused approach, helping clients build safe, trusting relationships that foster healing and resilience. I partner with caregivers, caseworkers, and community supports, tailoring my approach to meet each family’s unique needs.
I greatly enjoy my current role working as a mental health professional. I practice in the outpatient setting both in person and virtually. I work with children, youth, and families with a variety of diagnoses. I have the most experience working with individuals impacted by trauma, and I am trained in EMDR. I have experience professionally working with individuals and families who have experienced adoption and foster care, and I also have personal connections to adoption as my sister is an adult adoptee.

I am an outpatient therapist, working with children, adolescents, and young adults.

I highly value collaboration with clients and their families together, as well as professional collaboration and consultation.

Hi! I am Teresa, a clinical social worker who is passionate about supporting adoptees, first/birth families and adoptive families.

My vocational calling is to support the psychological and spiritual well-being of children, adolescents, and adults within adoptive, foster, and kinship family systems.
