I am an independent board certified behavior analyst (BCBA) that specializes in using Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to help children, teens, or adults diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and developmental disabilities. I create person centered goals to help clients reach their developmental milestones. I also demonstrate how to improve communication, daily living (e.g. getting dressed), coping, safety (e.g. crossing the street), social, play, and reduce challenging behaviors (e.g. tantrums and aggression). I am currently accepting new clients who need intensive 1:1 ABA in-home and group home settings.

Healing is hard. It’s often ugly and can be a beautiful journey. Not enough people acknowledge how hard it is to heal, grow, and transform. Seeking help is a huge step. Healing starts to take place as soon as someone feels heard. I strive to make children, teens, and adults feel heard, seen, and valued. I provide in-person and virtual individual therapy as well as family therapy. I am passionate about helping people with trauma, anxiety, depression, behavioral challenges in children, improving parenting strategies, and gender and sexual identity challenges.
