I enjoy working with youth and adults dealing a range of clinical issues.
Although seeking out therapy can be intimidating, I strongly believe it has the power to facilitate genuine change and growth. In my work with clients, I foster a collaborative and supportive relationship, focused on their uniqueness as individuals while also considering the context of their lives. My therapeutic approach is empathic, active, and strengths-based. I use an integrative perspective centered on cognitive behavioral techniques, direct feedback and humor to help clients reach their personal and professional goals.

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, young adults, families and, adults who experience a wide range of challenges.
I believe in using a holistic, collaborative approach that focuses on client’s strength in order to promote progress and healing. I recognize that facing fears and challenges can be an incredibly difficult process. Therefore, I believe it is imperative to hold a balance of warmth and compassion, as well as honesty and authenticity, to help individuals achieve their goals. In my work I use a myriad of evidence-based treatments to care for my clients; yet, additionally I acknowledge there is no “one size fits all” approach. This distinction informs the devotion, care, and time I take to ensure my clients feel empowered.

In 2014, I launched ADHD reWired - a weekly podcast for adults with ADHD where you will hear a collection of personal stories, science, and strategies.
My ideal clients are adults navigating the complexities of being neurodivergent (ADHD, AuDHD, Autism). They seek understanding, validation, and practical strategies to better manage life. They desire a safe space to explore and affirm their identity, including their sexual orientation and relationship preferences. My clients aim to improve self-awareness, and self-esteem, and be generally more productive, effective, and fulfilled in life. With my extensive experience and empathetic approach, I offer both emotional support and practical, concrete, and sometimes out-of-the-box solutions to help thrive.

I love working with college age/young adults, and adults. At times, school, home life, and transitions to college or living on your own can be tough to navigate. Life can become overwhelming and we lose insight into our abilities to problem solve, stay organized, and cope with stress, anxiety, or depression. I want to work with you to improve your executive functioning skills, find and use your strengths, increase your self-esteem, re-develop and create new coping strategies, and utilize the resources and connections in your community so you feel supported and in control.

I have special training in attachment issues of both adults and children.
My approach to therapy is interactive and collaborative, and I believe people can improve self-esteem and relieve depression and anxiety through the therapeutic process. It's been gratifying to witness clients feeling better as they resolve feelings about their early relationships, and improve their current relationships. Many people feel at an impasse in their lives; and therapy helps them see that, no matter how painful a problem feels, there is always hope.
