I have specialized in autism and Asperger's syndrome for 20 years, and my practice is currently limited to individuals who have or are suspected of having an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This can include presenting problems such as anxiety, depression, aggression, compliance issues, which often arise because of difficulties with social communication and inflexible thinking. ASD is often missed in girls and women, because they try harder to fit in, and pretend to be normal. I believe that every person has innate worth and deserves to live in peace.

As a counselor, I utilize a strengths-based and person-centered approach. I believe in fostering genuine connections and cultivating resilience within individuals.

I recognize the importance of cultural identity and honor the diverse backgrounds of those I work with.
