About My Clients

I have experience working with all ages, but most of my work has been with teenagers and adults. I have worked with individuals who are on the Autism Spectrum, have anxiety or depression, self esteem issues, communication challenges and much more. I also have experience working with parents and siblings who may be struggling as well.

My Background and Approach

I have dedicated my career to working with neurodiverse individuals. Together, we will work to create goals ranging from finding coping strategies, executive function/dysfunction, setting boundaries, or developing self-acceptance. Ultimately, we all deserve a life where we feel authentic and able to thrive on our own terms. I have spent the last 10+ years working with individuals of all ages who are neurodiverse, including ADHD and Autism. I have extensive experience working with individuals struggling to set boundaries with others.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that all behavior and emotions have a purpose and we just need to figure out the purpose to help shape and change it (if necessary). I believe that all people are equal. I believe that each individual is the expert in their own life and my purpose is to be a curious supporter in helping them reach their goals.
