My Ideal Client

People seek therapy for many reasons but they usually want to feel heard and understood. I work with children, teens, adults, and whole families. Together we can process stressful or traumatic events, build self-esteem, manage anxiety, and strengthen your relationship to yourself and with others.

My Approach to Helping

Therapy can be a place where you can explore barriers getting in the way of reaching your full potential, learn how to manage strong feelings, and shift unhealthy patterns. Humans are ever-evolving as we navigate this world and its challenges. At Twilight Reflections, people feel heard and learn how to better understand each other. We don’t want to just float through life, so let’s start thriving!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I’ve spent much of my career working with families and helping parents understand what their children and teens are communicating through their actions or behaviors. I believe in the essential human need for connection, using collaborative approaches to solve problems, and that we are forever evolving throughout our lives. Therapists also need to take care of themselves and being outside in nature helps me refresh and recharge. In my free time, I like backpacking or camping with friends and family. To engage my creative side, I experiment with new vegetarian recipes, sing, practice watercolor, and take pictures of nature. I’m passionate about politics, current events, and social justice. Lastly, I enjoy meditation and being in nature to keep myself centered and grounded. Most importantly, I believe you are the expert of your own life, so trust yourself and your judgement. If you’re ready to build skills for a lifetime of success, reach out to schedule our first session together!

    I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help teens process a specific traumatic or stressful event.

Issues I Treat

Specialties

  • Anxiety External link

    Do you lack confidence, feel down on yourself or have low motivation? Do you frequently worry, struggle at school/work, or avoid social situations? Build self-esteem and a strong sense of self to manage your anxiety and strengthen your relationship with yourself and with others.

  • Child or Adolescent Issues External link

    Are you constantly fighting with your child and feel like you’ve tried everything? Are you worried about your child and don’t know how to help them? Play therapy with children and talk therapy with teens can help them develop communication skills, emotion regulation, and self-confidence, so they can build the critical thinking skills to be successful.

  • Family Conflict External link

    Is your family struggling to communicate in a healthy way or does it seem like everyone is on a different page? Are your children struggling and you just don’t know how to help them? Repair your relationships to restore a healthy home environment and understand your family’s needs.
