Spark Therapy
Your Guiding Light
Warm, professional counseling for children, teens, and individual adults — on your schedule, in the way that works best for you.
Therapy Services
I offer therapy services for children, teens, and individual adults.

A safe space for teens to be heard, understood, and supported.

Specialize in Treating
Mental health issues are sadly on the rise. Here are the problems I treat regularly.
Trauma
If not treated, trauma can negatively affect you the rest of your life.
Depression
Depression is at an all time high. Don't let them suffer.
Anxiety
More people struggle with anxiety disorders than any other mental condition.
Behavior Issues
About 8.9% of children ages 3-17 have been diagnosed with a behavior problem (CDC). But it can be treated.
Personality Disorders
Personality disorders untreated can lead to depression and other issues. Get help early.
Why Spark Therapy
Thoughtful details that make therapy easier to start and easier to stick with.
Evenings Available
Many people have a hard time being able to meet during regular business hours. For this reason I offer evening sessions.
24/7 Emergency Text Line
Sometimes you can't wait for your next session. I provide a HIPAA-compliant text line for urgent support and respond as soon as I'm in a confidential space.
Discreet
My office is strategically located so no one will know you're receiving counseling services unless you want them to.
HSA Accepted
To make things easier on my clients I am set up to accept HSA debit cards as payment.
HIPAA Compliant
I take HIPAA compliance seriously. Extra measures are taken to make sure I am following HIPAA guidelines.
Come to You
If you can't make it into the office, and an online session won't do, I come to you. I offer on location sessions.
School Notes
I can provide school notes to help accommodate therapy during school hours and keep your child on track.
Appointment Options
I offer a variety of options when it comes to therapy location.
In Office
In office therapy is the industry standard and what I prefer.
Virtual
If in person isn't an option, I am able to offer virtual session as needed.
On Location
In some situations therapy is best done in the home or school. I can accommodate.

Common questions
When will I hear back?▼
I check messages regularly during business hours and aim to respond within 24–48 hours. As a solo provider, I personally handle every call, text, and email, so response times may be a little slower on evenings and weekends. If you need urgent support, the HIPAA-compliant text line is the fastest way to reach me.
What can the text line help with?▼
The text line is for quick, non-emergency support between sessions—things like scheduling changes, a question that came up after a session, or a brief check-in. If you are in crisis or having thoughts of harming yourself or someone else, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room rather than texting.
Will my information stay confidential?▼
Yes. I follow HIPAA guidelines and take privacy seriously. Because I am a sole provider, your information stays with me and is not shared across a larger clinic or team. There are limited exceptions to confidentiality, such as concerns about imminent harm to yourself or others, suspected child or elder abuse, or a court order. I’m happy to discuss this in more detail at any time.
