About My Clients

In my work with children, adolescents, and adults, I strive to understand my clients through a neurodivergent lens and relational framework. Areas of specialty are ADHD, Autism, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Together, we discover how to best take care of yourself, navigate challenges, and find coping strategies that work for you. 

My Background and Approach

I strive to be flexible and creative as I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities including cognitive-behavioral (CBT), dialectical-behavioral (DBT), emotional regulation skills, executive function supports, and social skills development strategies.  There is no one right path nor a direct one through life, but with strengthened sense of self and confidence, clients will be supported finding their way.  

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Over the years learning from my clients and through professional development, it's been amazing to see shifts in understanding neurodivergence. I strive to advocate and normalize neurodivergence in order to foster belonging and community.
