Welcome to
2nd Star Counseling
A safe space for children, teens, families, and individuals navigating life’s emotional terrain.
I understand how overwhelming it can be to seek support—whether you’re a parent worried about your child’s big emotions, a teen feeling lost or unheard, or an adult yearning for clarity and deeper healing. You don’t have to do this alone.
How I
Support You
At 2nd Star Counseling, I offer compassionate, creative therapy for children, teens, families, and individuals—especially in seasons of transition, overwhelm, or inner change. Through developmentally attuned and depth-informed approaches, I help clients navigate:
- Emotional outbursts or withdrawal in children
- Anxiety, isolation, and identity exploration in adolescents
- Miscommunication or disconnection in family systems
- Parenting challenges during times of trauma or transition
- Grief, major life changes, and a longing for clarity
- A desire for symbolic, imaginative, or creative paths to healing
What We – Together –
Make Possible
These services go beyond symptom management—I focus on building connection, capacity, and inner resilience. Through individualized therapy, play, expressive work, and family support, I help facilitate:
- A child who feels confident, understood, and safe
- A teen who can meet the world with authenticity and strength
- Families who reconnect, repair, and grow together
- Adults who find clarity, balance, and a deeper sense of self
- I hold each client’s hopes with care and offer a therapeutic space that invites healing, expression, and meaningful change.
A Safe Space
for Children & Teens
I specialize in developmentally attuned therapy that meets kids and adolescents where they are—through play, creativity, and conversation. Whether your child is navigating big emotions, anxiety, or life transitions, I create a space where they can feel seen, heard, and supported.
Support for Families & Parents
Healing often starts at home. I work with parents and families to strengthen connection, improve communication, and create more ease in daily life. Whether you’re navigating co-parenting, behavioral challenges, or family stress, I am here to support your whole system.
Creative &
Play-oriented Therapy
For those seeking deeper insight or soul-centered support, I offer therapy that goes beyond surface symptoms. Using dreams, symbols, expressive work, and relational presence, I help individuals explore their inner world and move toward meaningful change.
Acknowledgement of Land & Privilege
I acknowledge the Indigenous communities who have stewarded this land for generations and honor their ongoing relationship with it. I recognize my privilege and commit to listening, learning, and supporting those systemically marginalized.
