Spectrum disorders affect 1 in 36 children in the United States, and with social media bringing awareness, it can be confusing to navigate a new diagnosis with various forms of information being shared. If you or your child has recently received a spectrum diagnosis, know that you are not alone. Nurturing this journey through proven modalities bolstered by peer-reviewed research and empirical data is central to achieving practical outcomes and overall well-being. Every person's journey is unique and should be explored through methods that ensure a welcoming and safe environment.

Mental health needs are growing by the minute and the second, with increased suicides and mental health breakdowns rising.

I have extensive training working with individuals who struggle with a range of anxiety symptoms, and diagnoses especially trauma. In my years of practice, I have noticed that many clients lack trust in themselves and the ability to find a positive sense of self. People just want to understand themselves and become more comfortable with how they handle daily life stressors and others. To achieve this goal individuals need support with recognizing triggers and utilizing appropriate coping skills to reduce the negative responses to those triggers.
