Experience

I have several years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults from diverse backgrounds. I have experience working in an autism center (ABA), hospitals, treatment facilities, community mental health, and private practice.

Specialities

I have particular expertise in supporting individuals diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and those managing complex medical histories. In addition to therapy, I enjoy conducting psychological assessments for individuals of all ages, helping them gain a clearer understanding of themselves and identify areas for personal growth and positive change. I find feedback sessions particularly rewarding, as clients often express appreciation for the new found clarity and tools that these sessions provide.

My Approach

My therapeutic approach is rooted in trust, respect, openness, and collaboration, with a touch of humor. I employ a range of evidence-based techniques, including Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), client-centered methods, and trauma-informed practices. I also strongly believe in challenging my clients when appropriate, encouraging personal growth and new self-discovery along the way.
