Has life taken you or your child on an unexpected path? I work with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults, as well as parents/caregivers, who are navigating neurodivergence. Are you or your child in need of an ADHD or Autism Assessment? Have you noticed difficulties in the areas of sensory overwhelm, language and communication, and social-emotional responses, and heightened anxiety? Would an evaluation help you to find clarity in unanswered questions? Are you in need of a roadmap of resources and support in navigating your journey?
I believe the entirety of the individual is affected when facing challenges of Autism, ADHD and Anxiety; life may be impacted in many ways. As a Certified Autism Specialist, I am here to support you and/or your child. I utilize ADOS-2 and MIGDAS-2 Autism evaluations focusing on finding answers and clarity together as we find the right next steps.
Many individuals and families experience mental health challenges at junctures on their life journeys. As a mother of a child who is affected by Autism and having worked with many affected by ASD, I provide Neurodivergent Affirming Assessments. Reach out today to receive direction in navigating the path forward with confidence.
