Through therapy and collaboration, I can help your teens learn to cope, and help you reconnect with your child.

Therapy for Children with Severe Behaviors
I have a passion for working with children and adolescents experiencing behavioral challenges, ADHD, trauma, anxiety, and depression. Drawing from a variety of evidence-based and creative therapeutic approaches, I help young people develop the skills, confidence, and resilience needed to thrive. I also partner closely with parents and caregivers through counseling and parent coaching, creating a supportive environment where families can strengthen relationships, improve communication, and rediscover peace together. At Paper Cranes Therapy, my goal is to help children heal, families reconnect, and hope grow.
Parent Coaching
Parent Coaching
Parenting a child with behavioral or emotional challenges can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate it alone. If your child is receiving counseling, I also offer parent coaching to equip you with practical tools, effective strategies, and ongoing support.
Available in person or through secure telehealth, parent coaching helps you better understand the underlying factors contributing to your child's behavior while learning evidence-based approaches to encourage positive change. Together, we focus on strengthening the parent-child relationship, establishing consistent and healthy boundaries, improving communication, and building confidence in your parenting. The goal is to create lasting change that supports your child's emotional well-being while fostering a calmer, more connected family environment.
Juvenile Justice and Probation
Probation & Juvenile Justice Support
If you or your child are involved with juvenile justice or adult probation, I provide counseling and coordinated support to help navigate the challenges of the justice system. With more than 30 years of experience working alongside juvenile justice and probation programs, I understand the unique needs of individuals and families during this process.
My goal is to help clients address the underlying emotional, behavioral, and mental health concerns that contribute to involvement in the justice system while building the skills needed for long-term success. Through a collaborative approach with probation officers, families, and other professionals—when appropriate and with the necessary permissions—I strive to support accountability, personal growth, and lasting positive change..
Veterans and First Responders
Trauma & PTSD
Traumatic experiences can have a lasting impact on emotional, physical, and mental well-being. Symptoms such as anxiety, fear, depression, hopelessness, intrusive memories, and thoughts of suicide can persist long after the event has passed, making it difficult to feel safe, connected, or at peace.
As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP Levels I & II), I provide compassionate, trauma-informed care to help you process painful experiences, reduce distressing symptoms, and develop healthy coping strategies. Together, we will work toward healing, restoring resilience, and helping you rediscover hope and a renewed sense of peace.
