I also offer ADHD, Autism, & Learning Disability assessment.
As a counselor, I believe in the transformative power of insight as the foundation for meaningful change. My approach centers on helping clients uncover the precursors to their struggles, whether rooted in past experiences, deeply held beliefs, or automatic thought patterns. Through compassionate exploration, I assist individuals in identifying the underlying factors contributing to their current symptoms, fostering self-awareness that serves as a catalyst for growth. I emphasize the importance of this initial realization, helping clients connect with their reasons for change and the motivation that drives them forward.

Waitlist for new clients
When we work together we’ll discuss your concerns and how it’s impacting your life. We’ll focus on building both insight and skills to help you create the change you’re looking for. While we may discuss difficult topics and have impactful conversations in session, I believe a lot of change happens between the times that we meet. I often give something to do/try/think about in-between sessions. I find that honest feedback from you on those skills or ideas is important, and while that can be easier said than done, I find that the most successful sessions are ones where we are both honest with each other.

How effective is treatment for learning disabilities?
When initiated early and tailored to a child’s specific needs, learning disability treatment can be quite effective at helping a child cope with their disability, though its exact efficacy may depend on the severity of symptoms and whether comorbid disorders exist. Less is known about treatment initiated in adulthood, but it is certainly possible that an adult with a learning disability will see some improvement—or at the very least, identify workarounds and accommodations that could make symptoms less burdensome in day-to-day life.

When should someone seek treatment for learning disabilities?
It’s best to seek treatment as early as possible. Because learning disabilities often go unnoticed until a child starts school, or even until they’re a few years along, regular check-ins with teachers and doctors can help parents determine whether children are meeting milestones and keeping up with peers or whether an evaluation for learning disabilities may be warranted. And although earlier is always better, it’s never too late to be evaluated for learning disabilities and to seek treatment.

What happens if learning disabilities are left untreated?
Undiagnosed and untreated learning disabilities can be a source of significant frustration and shame for a child, who may feel that their challenges stem from a lack of intelligence or willpower. Such feelings can trigger low self-esteem, depression, or anxiety, which may push a child toward risky behaviors, including substance use. In adulthood, untreated learning disabilities can interfere with career success, and lingering feelings of self-doubt and shame can negatively affect someone’s mental health.

Are there medications for learning disabilities?
Currently, there are no medications designed to treat specific learning disabilities such as dysgraphia or dyscalculia. However, someone with a learning disability may be prescribed medication for a comorbid condition, such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD, which may have positive downstream effects on their learning disability; for example, a child with both ADHD and dyslexia may find that they’re better able to focus on their reading exercises after being prescribed a stimulant medication.
