About Fircrest Behavioral Health

I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, neurodivergence, and major life transitions. My approach is collaborative, direct, and emotionally focused, helping clients build deeper connection, greater self-understanding, and lasting change with both insight and practical support.

I work with children and teens ages 3–18, supporting those navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, developmental disabilities, trauma, emotional regulation, and self-esteem challenges. Using play therapy, expressive arts, and person-centered approaches, I create a warm, creative, and supportive space where clients can process emotions and express themselves in ways that feel natural.

I work with children (5+), teens, and adults navigating autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation challenges, and suicidal ideation/self-injurious behaviors. My approach is strength-based and trauma-informed, using CBT, DBT, person-centered therapy, and play therapy, along with mindfulness and fitness-informed strategies to support overall well-being.

I work with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, anger, behavioral concerns, and life transitions. Using DBT and narrative therapy approaches, I help clients build practical coping skills, strengthen resilience, and feel more confident navigating life’s challenges in a compassionate, collaborative space.

I work with adults (18+) who feel out of place, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves, including those who are neurodivergent, trauma-impacted, or struggling to fit into systems that don’t feel built for them. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help clients understand protective patterns, reconnect with their core self, and move toward greater self-acceptance and healing.

As the Scheduling Coordinator at Fircrest Behavioral Health, I support new clients in finding the right provider and ensuring a smooth start to therapy. With a background in nonprofit work, small business ownership, and parenting, I bring compassion, organization, and a personal touch to each conversation, making sure every individual feels seen and supported.

I work with children ages 3–10 and their families navigating anxiety, ADHD, autism, trauma, school challenges, behavioral concerns, and parenting struggles. My approach is creative, collaborative, and tailored to each child, blending play, movement, humor, and evidence-based therapies to help children grow while supporting parents every step of the way.

I work with adolescents ages 13–17 navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, compulsive behaviors, substance use, and relationship challenges. Using ACT, DBT, and ERP approaches, I help teens build practical tools, align with their values, and create healthier, more meaningful paths forward in a compassionate and approachable environment.

I support individuals seeking greater balance, resilience, and emotional well-being, especially those struggling with anxiety, stress, focus challenges, and persistent mental health symptoms.

I also offer neurofeedback as a personalized brain-training tool to support improved focus, stress regulation, and overall mental clarity.

I work with children, teens, individuals, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, autism, behavioral challenges, and parenting stress.

I work with men, kids (9+), and families who are feeling stuck in cycles of anger, anxiety, depression, behavioral challenges, or strained relationships. I help high achievers and struggling teens alike build character, responsibility, and healthier patterns, using a practical, out-of-the-box approach that may include biofeedback and neurofeedback to support measurable emotional and behavioral change.

I help individuals struggling with anxiety, migraines, sensory processing challenges, sleep issues, and trauma find relief and healing through neurofeedback. Using EEG-based brain training, I help clients retrain brain patterns to support improved sleep, reduced anxiety, clearer thinking, and better emotional regulation in a supportive, encouraging environment.
