I draw from various methods including CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, and play therapy.
Are you seeking clarity about attention, learning, or social differences? Are you a high-masking or high-achieving adult who has internalized your challenges over the years, but always wondered about your neurotype? Navigating the world as a neurodivergent person—or as the parent of a neurodivergent child—can bring unique questions and challenges. As an experienced psychologist specialized in Autism, ADHD, and learning differences, I offer a safe, and affirming space for individuals and families to explore concerns, receive comprehensive and insight-oriented diagnostic evaluations, and access strengths-based services.

I believe each of us is capable of overcoming the patterns in our lives which hold us back and prevent us from living the lives we desire. As a counselor my role is to provide a space in which we can explore these patterns and provide support to help you achieve the goals you’ve set for yourself. Life can be overwhelming- sometimes it is helpful to have a neutral sounding board to help sort out our thoughts and feelings, and other times we need a little extra support to help navigate through a difficult time of life.

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists
How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.

When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behavior through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.

What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviors and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.

Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioral habits.
