About My Clients
My typical clients are the "bright and different" kids who are often misunderstood by traditional school and medical systems. I may be a good fit for your child or teen if: They have "big feelings" that often lead to meltdowns or shut-downs They are often mislabeled as "defiant" or "behavioral issues" by the school systems Children who have incredible strengths but struggle with executive function or transitions
My Background and Approach
My journey as a clinical social worker has always been driven by a commitment to those who feel unseen by traditional systems. During my career as a school social worker, I quickly realized that the twice exceptional BIPOC children were being asked to fit into boxes that were not built for them. I saw brilliant, creative, and innovative minds being labeled as "defiant" or "difficult because the misinterpreted their processing styles. I have pivoted my practice toward a Neurodiversity-Affirming framework to ensure I am providing the most current, evidence-based care. My goal is to be more than just a therapist; I am a partner in your child's journey toward radical self-acceptance.
