As a therapist, my focus is assisting individuals in maximizing their quality of life, via enhancing social and relational connections. I function from the perspective of neurodiversity, that there are variations in how our brains process and interpret information. Through identifying strengths, we can build a foundation to reach desired goals. I specialize in assisting individuals and their families in addressing needs related to the areas of social skills, behavioral needs, and school concerns. I also specialize in addressing topics of hygiene, body curiosity, sexual safety, and consent for individuals with ASD.

I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with children, teens and young adults. I have experience with a variety of presenting concerns including Autism Spectrum diagnoses, trauma, severe emotional disturbances, mood disorders, psychotic disorders, bullying, oppositional concerns and adjustment disorders. I believe establishing and maintaining a trusting therapeutic relationship is essential for growth. I take an approach that combines play therapy, psychodynamic therapy, family systems and behavior management strategies to gauge a client's current functioning and utilize their strengths to help promote growth.

I am passionate about helping adolescents and adults on the autism spectrum and their families. I operate from a neurodiverse framework; my main goal is to help my clients thrive by living a life in harmony with their strengths, values, and goals. I believe my clients are expert in their own experience, and my mission is to assist them in discovering their strengths and to help them learn ways to effectively manage the challenges associated with being on the spectrum. My specialties include dual diagnosis of autism and a mental health condition, late diagnosis of autism, and adolescents and adults with a new diagnosis of autism.

All of us, over the course of our lives, have found ourselves faced with challenging life events - some small and others so much bigger than ourselves that we become overwhelmed and unable to face them alone. We may experience feelings of grief, loss, depression, anxiety, trauma, family conflicts, marital strife, illness, or addiction to mention a few. However, what is most important is that we not face these alone, and remember there is help and relief. Each one of us has a sense of resiliency to meet our life challenges - even in our worst times. Finding that resiliency is the beginning to healing and living our best lives.

We are a whole world. Therapy is about mapping out, traveling to, and learning from all of the places we have inside of us. We can choose the places we call home, the places we visit sometimes, and the places we bring closure to as time goes on. My job as a therapist is to help you explore how your life experiences, influential relationships, and core beliefs continue to play a part in your everyday life. I’ve found that if we can work together to visit uncomfortable places long enough to find calm and to start to look around, we’ll see that every life event has important insight to keep present as we live out new experiences.
