Get to know me!
I’m so happy that you’re here and I think that seeking therapy is one of the strongest and most vulnerable things to do for yourself and your family.
I am a student intern at the University of Oklahoma online program. I am currently working towards my LPC-Associates license and am being closely supervised by Melissa Griffing, LPC-S and my OU faculty supervisor.
Being a parent is hard, especially when your child is experiencing big emotions and struggling to communicate what they need in a way that you can understand. These moments can feel so overwhelming and like you’re doing something wrong, but there is no “right” or “wrong” way to parent your child. Through play therapy, I will focus on building a strong, trusting relationship with your child and your family to help your child process difficult emotions and help your family find what works for you. I believe that the strongest factor in symptom improvement is building and maintaining a warm, authentic, and trusting relationship with my client and their family. By the end of our time together, my goal is that your child will be better equipped to regulate their emotions and that those big, emotional moments will turn into smaller moments that bring your family closer together.
