My Approach to Therapy

My therapy style is holistic and integrative, focusing not only on the child but also on the family and environmental factors that influence their well-being. I use a combination of evidence-based techniques tailored to meet each child’s unique needs.

Why Work with Me?

- Choosing a therapist for your child is a significant decision. Here are a few reasons why parents and caregivers choose to work with me.

- Expertise in Developmental Psychology: My deep understanding of child and adolescent development helps me connect with young clients and address their specific needs effectively.

- Family-Centered Approach: I believe in involving the family in the therapeutic process, ensuring that the support extends beyond the therapy sessions.

- Engaging and Empathetic: My sessions are designed to be engaging and interactive, helping children feel comfortable and understood.

- Commitment to Growth: I am dedicated to my professional development, regularly updating my skills through advanced training and continuous learning.

I hold a Master’s degree in Child and Adolescent Psychology from the University of Turku in Finland. My professional journey brought me to the United States, where I am licensed to practice in both Minnesota and California. My approach is enriched by specialized training in developmental psychology and trauma-informed care, which allows me to address a wide range of issues that young clients face.
