My areas of practice and experience include anxiety, depression, stress/worry, ADHD, ASD, OCD, tic disorders, Tourettes, personality disorders, trauma, emotional regulation, social skills, life skills, and transitioning to adulthood.
I tailor treatment plans to meet the unique needs of each individual and work with them to reach their therapeutic goals.
