Your relationships might be feeling less than happy and fulfilling lately, or you're just plain overwhelmed.

I now specialize in assisting other ND/autistic adults & their allies as they a) explore identity/diagnosis, b) cope with ongoing life adjustments/ND burnout & c) make informed choices about how/when it is safe to “unmask.” I help clients: identify personal life/career-related challenges, build upon strengths, & make constructive changes to create a ‘right-s...
I help young adults who are constantly worrying. It is like a “What if…” reel is running in their minds. My clients get stuck (often in their heads) and despite being smart, thoughtful, and hardworking they are struggling. When they first come into therapy, they feel paralyzed by anxiety. They tend to have active minds and are often imagining various worst-case scenarios playing out in their lives. Their worry gets in the way of the life they want in so many ways. They’re avoiding things t...

I think it is extremely courageous to admit we need help. I believe one of the most important criteria for successful treatment is to have a trusting, open, "therapeutic rapport" with a client. Without trust and a good connection, the therapeutic process cannot begin. With that in mind, I believe the first step is creating an environment safe from judgement and rich in support. My focus is to enable clients to acquire insight, skills, and motivation for emotional, cognitive, and behavioral trans...

In relationships, you struggle with feelings of insecurity, where your emotions seem to overpower you instead of the other way around. As a result, you resort to unhealthy coping mechanisms such as shutting down or lashing out during arguments. The weight of guilt and shame bears down on you because d...
