I am a strengths-based counselor who helps people figure out how they can feel better mentally and emotionally. I work with clients of varying ages and diagnoses. I do not treat diagnoses, I help people identify ways to be more equipped to handle life stressors, whatever they may be.
I have a variety of clients with whom I work well. I specialize in children, adolescents, and young adults with Austism Spectrum Disorder diagnoses. Areas of specialty also include ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Trauma, Self-harm, Suicidality, and others.
