I have experience working with children and adults impacted by the foster care system, clients with ASD and cognitive impairments, and those experiencing typical life challenges.
Are you sick of feeling unheard and unseen? As a neurodivergent provider in a society that is not always neurodivergency affirming, I feel connected to clients who feel as if they are navigating life without understanding themselves or their experiences. My own experiences and training have drawn me to my passion of working with neurodivergent children and adults utilizing a neurodivergency affirming approach.

While skilled at cognitive behavioral therapy, I tailor my counseling techniques based on clients' individual needs and goals.
It’s easy to find ourselves ‘stuck’ – whether in negative patterns of thinking, hurtful relationships, or in the all-to-familiar traps of anxiety and depression. Over my nearly fifteen years of clinical experience, I’ve helped clients (single and married) from all walks of life bridge the gap between where they are and where they long to be. For some, growth looks like re-established relational connections, more effective communication skills, healthier boundaries, or greater self-acceptance and contentment with life.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
