Trained in/Specialties: I am trained in Birth to 6, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Bounce Back (Intervention for Elementary School Children Exposed to Stressful Events), Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools (CBITS) for middle and high school ages, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Managing and Adapting Practices (MAP).

Works with clients ages: I work with children ages 3 years old to 18 years old.

My favorite part of being a therapist is seeing the kids grow and the positive changes that go along with improved self-esteem and mood.

What I really like about being a supervisor is watching my supervisee’s develop skills and create change in the lives of those they work with. I love being able to support my team and to help them reach their full potential.

Northern Pines stresses family and self-care above all else and I love that. I have a wonderful team who work great together and support one another.

In my free time I like spending time with my kids, family and friends. I enjoy going for walks, watching Hallmark movies, reading, doing puzzles and cooking or baking.
