Welcome! For the past seven years, my passion has been to help facilitate personal growth in young children, adolescents, and teens. My primary focus is to be someone you can turn to in a time of need. The stress of growing up in today's ever-changing society can be overwhelming. I would like to join you on your journey to develop the skills necessary to overcome those stressors by teaching you the skills needed. I like to practice from an unconditional, supportive therapist role, in a relaxing environment. I am dedicated to using all my resources to help achieve peace & happiness in your lives!

 

My experience has given me the confidence to work with, but not limited to anxiety, depression, trauma, ocd, behavioral & school issues. I am trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Parent Child Interaction Training (PCIT) & Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). I utilize 1 on 1, group, parent, & family sessions to help improve relationships, coping strategies, listening & communication skills.  I am currently working towards trainings in Play Therapy and Exposure & Response Prevention Therapy (ERP).  

 

Every person is different & I believe in accommodating to meet the needs of each unique individual. I try to incorporate a fun & humorous atmosphere while building rapport & trust. I believe humor can be used to help normalize situations. Give me a call today so we can discuss how I can help you on your journey.

 

When not working I am spending time with my wife, two children, and 2 dogs.  I enjoy being outside, sports, and going to UT football games.
