I specialize in working with individuals in the Autism community. I have a previous background in working with DDD. When helping clients with Autism we will work together using Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy and work through Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria.

When helping Clients manage their symptoms of anxiety, it is not just giving coping skills and doing the basics. I help clients make the connections needed to see if there is additional issues that are causing the increase in anxiety symptoms. We will work together using Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy and work through Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria. In addition this will include working on Thought Stopping, Thought and Judgment Diffusion among many other skills.

I specialize in working with individuals who are diagnosed or undiagnosed with ADHD. I do not believe in pushing medication management as a main means of managing symptoms. When helping clients with ADHD we will work together using Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy and work through Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria and Executive Functioning.

With Dialectical behavior therapy I am able to help Clients not only develop plans to better cope and have self-care. But we are also able to look into the negative thought messages they carry with themselves and use Thought Diffusion and Thought Stopping to work through their Automatic Negative Thoughts. I help Clients using DBT to work through their anger management, emotional regulation and even PTSD.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in many ways during sessions. The main uses are to help Clients work to Reframe and Restructure their cognitions, build healthier communication within their relationships and have better conflict resolution techniques.

I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients manage their symptoms of Depression. We will use the Depression scale as a tool to assist in the proper engagement with this therapeutic modality. I have used this as well to develop their coping skills while accepting themselves and situations as a whole without trying to change what has happened.
