I enjoy working with clients who are looking to belong as themselves and experience their lives more fully in the present, coming in with diverse identities and neurotypes (LGBTQIA2S+, Autism and ADHD). In sessions we will work together to build a safe relational context for growing and exploring your relationship with your whole self. We might use expressive arts therapy like visual and tactile arts, somatic based approaches like EMDR, yoga, meditation, breathwork, movement and dance, or use more cognitive strategies for problem solving and developing new ways of thinking and engaging your strengths.

An Empathetic philosophy anchored in caring, trust, dignity, and respect. Although it may seem difficult at times to find balance in your life, it is not impossible to find this balance.

Life can be very stressful at times. Our moods, anxiety levels, thinking and behaviors can depend on how well we are able to manage these stressors over time. Sometimes, the coping skills we have learned simply are not enough and we feel overwhelmed and out of control. There is a solution to almost every problem. My goal in therapy is to provide a safe environment so that you can learn to better manage your thinking, feeling and behavior and regain control and power in your life.

Wherever you are in your life’s journey, I will meet you there and companion you as you move through the obstacles that have kept you from living fully. Life circumstances, trauma and sometimes simply trying to please others can influence how we live and the choices we make. We find that we are not living authentically. I believe that the goals in therapy are to return to our authentic selves and to make life choices that give us meaning, purpose and joy.

Hi! My name is Veronica and go by my nickname, Moica. I have an eclectic solution-focused approach to my work with individuals. Utilizing a customized approach to support each client's unique challenges and barriers. Support my client to take the lead in their treatment and create an engaging dialogue and experience. Utilizing therapy as a safe place to vent, process and express yourself is a great use of your session; however, I also enjoy treating from a systemic approach. This allows me to create a clear road map for my clients on how they can reach some of their “Big Goals”, whether they are personal and or professional goals.

I believe that healing can happen through the process of empathic and supportive counseling. I work with mood issues, personality disorders, grief, substance use and more. I utilize a culturally sensitive and holistic psychodynamic style of therapy. This approach encourages development in all areas of life, and pays special attention to unconscious factors, childhood upbringing, trauma, and cultural identity (race, religion, sexuality, gender, disability, etc). I am currently accepting clients for group therapy, that will combine the sport/art of crew rowing with group talk therapy. This is a powerful way of feeling connection.

Deep at my core, I would like to believe I can work with anyone regarding any potential concern. I do not wish to discriminate or weed out any clients in that way, it feels wrong to me. There very well may be some clients that don't feel I meet their needs and that is certainly okay with me. I do not bring a lot of structure, guidance, or advice to my counseling and that is not always what some clients need or desire. My ideal client is someone looking to change and grow, someone that wants to be the best version of themselves in a holistic manner.

Autism Therapists
What is the most effective treatment for autism?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) has come to be considered the standard treatment for children with autism spectrum disorder, and research has confirmed its effectiveness for many children. Therapists trained in ABA techniques work with children (and their parents) on developing social skills, communication and learning abilities, and everyday habits of hygiene and grooming. The clinician will tailor their program to the child’s particular need but the overarching goal will be to help them advance as far as possible toward independence based on their level of symptoms and decrease the need for additional special services. Families should seek a mental health professional specifically trained in ABA, and holding special certification in the technique, who has extensive experience not only with the approach but in using it with children with the same level of symptoms as the child who needs care.
How does ABA work?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) sessions, which typically focus on positive reinforcement, can be intensive, lasting two or more hours several times a week, and continuing for two years or more. Therapists can also be expected to ask parents to take an active role in reinforcing lessons. Research has found that the technique can lead to major improvements that decrease the need for additional special services.
How does treatment for autism work?
Therapy sessions based on Applied Behavior Analysis will likely be frequent, intensive, and highly structured. After a thorough assessment, a therapist will help a child understand and develop skills in a range of areas, including communication, motor skills, social skills, self-care, play, and academic skills, as well as routines of daily living like hygiene. Typically, the therapist will help a child break down the components of a behavior—often referred to as the antecedent (what prompts an action), the behavior, and the consequence(what immediately follows)—and then reward the child at every step, while also asking parents to reinforce the lessons, and the rewards, throughout the day. This core therapy may be supplemented by occupational or speech therapy, and antidepressants, antipsychotics, and anticonvulsants may be prescribed to address specific severe symptoms.
How long does therapy for autism take?
Some people with autism spectrum disorder may be engaged in some level of therapy for many years, but research shows that treatment will be most effective if it is begun early and delivered intensively. When therapy begins by age 3, children tend to be better able to grasp and adopt the skills needed to manage everyday life, including attending school and establishing social relationships. This type of early-intervention treatment regimen is highly structured, typically involving 20 to 40 hours of one-on-one therapy per week, along with additional hours of engagement managed by parents, for a period of two years or more, although the duration of treatment is dependent on the child’s level of symptoms and pace of progress.
