I specialize in children, preteens, and teens. I started my career as a school counselor and will always keep room on my caseload for our youth. I started ITSCO to give more school-aged children an opportunity to see skilled, licensed, and dedicated therapists to meet their needs.

I have experience with students as they experience pre-deployment, deployment, and post-deployment in group settings where they are able to build relationships and bonds with others experiencing the same situation. I have worked with youth as they have advocated their identity and then supported their needs as they have “come out” to their loved ones.

I’m passionate about empowering children and teens to overcome life’s challenges and pursue their dreams. I've worked with military families in school settings and have seen firsthand the impact that deployment has on the families, their daily lives, and especially the children.
