About

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, ADHD, Autism, depression, and other mental health concerns; specializing in challenging parenting and children with disabilities. Things won't change overnight, but I also don't prescribe to the notion that therapy always takes years. I work with you to set incremental goals that can be achieved within a few months or even weeks. Once they have been met, we reassess and can build on those goals, set new ones, or conclude therapy! With flexibility to each situation, I us a combination of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focusing on thought patterns and how they impact our perception. I tend to focus on values and use psychoeducation to understand how our brains work and to align our actions with what is most important to us, but can include other modalities as well!
