MY  APPROACH

My goal is to help you overcome the issues you are struggling with by building actionable skills AND by helping you gain a deeper understanding of the issue. By encouraging the teens I work with to engage in their own healing journey, teens can feel more empowered and trusting of the process. 

Many of my clients have said to me that they feel the world is trying to “push them into a mold” or that they “just don’t fit in.” My goal is to make every client that comes to Mindful Healing know they are wonderful just the way they are! They are strong and capable AND together we can overcome the obstacles that brought them here. 

I am have specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and hold Certifications in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Accelerated Resolution Therapy. I use these methods to help teens learn to stop self-destructive behaviors, complete tasks, find motivation, make healthy decisions, stop impulsive behaviors, and more. I  like to incorporate mindfulness techniques that can be modified to meet your individual needs.

I am a Licensed Master Level Social Worker (LMSW). My work history has provided me with extensive experience in helping clients with neurodiverse needs, including executive function disorders, ADHD, and Autism. I am passionate about helping teens develop tools to be successful in their daily life.
