As a licensed psychologist and BCBA, I work with my clients to identify their values and create meaningful and sustainable behavioral change. Whether you are struggling with your own personal growth or you have a child who is struggling, we will work together to identify common triggers, break unproductive response patterns, and build flexibility and resilience to help you take action toward your goals. I work with children, teens, and adults in the areas of anxiety and stress management, executive functioning, parent coaching and training, and challenging behavior.
My practice is neurodivergent affirming and I specialize in working with neurodiverse individuals to build the necessary skills to navigate life transitions successfully. Focus areas often include self-advocacy, respecting autonomy, adapting environmental systems and supports, and building emotional regulation skills from a strengths-based perspective.
Compassion, collaboration, and strong evidence-based therapeutic interventions are the cornerstones of my practice. Please email or call the office to let me know how I can help you with your therapeutic needs.
