Who I'd enjoy helping

These are the people and concerns I most want to work with. Once I begin seeing clients after graduation, sessions will be under the supervision of a licensed clinician.

Children

Worry and fears
Big emotions and meltdowns
Family changes like a move, a new baby, or divorce
Stress at school

Kids often can't explain how they feel, but they can show it through play. With young children I use play therapy techniques: toys, drawing, and stories become the words they don't have yet. I meet them there, and I share what I notice with you so you can help at home.

Parents

Connecting with your child
Handling tough moments
Routines and limits that work
The intense early years

As a mom of a young child, I understand how intense the early years can be. I offer practical parenting support that feels realistic and doable.

Teens and young adults

Feeling unsure about your path
Pressure from others' expectations
Feeling stuck and not sure where to start
Big life changes

Together we sort out what you want, not what everyone else expects, and turn it into small, manageable steps.

Couples and families

Young couples and early marriage
Communication and boundaries
Conflict and repair
Blended families
Life transitions

I married young and went through many life transitions alongside my husband, so I understand how much relationships change over time. With my marriage and family training, I use a practical, skills-based approach focused on communication, boundaries, and repair.

Families from every culture

Sessions in English or Spanish
Two cultures, one family
Moving to a new country
Stigma about counseling

Latino, European, or from anywhere else, you are welcome here. I understand the pressure of living between two languages and cultures.

Women healing from abusive relationships

Sorting through emotions
Clarifying your options
Building safety and support
Rebuilding confidence

Whether you have left or are still in the relationship, you deserve a steady, judgment-free space, at your pace. If you are in danger right now, call 911. The Local help page lists Union County support you can reach today.

Adults

Anxiety and worry
Low mood
Stress and burnout
Adjusting to change

Practical skills plus a safe place to be honest.

What a first session will look like

We will talk about what brings you in and what you hope will change.
I will ask about your story, your family, and what has helped before.
We will decide together on goals and next steps.
You can ask me anything: how I work, faith, language, cost.
