Currently not accepting new therapy clients. Only seeing existing clients and offering autism assessments at this time

For over fifteen years, I have been involved with children, adolescents, and adults as a coach, teacher, and psychologist. As an adult diagnosed with ADHD, I leverage my personal experience with ADHD-specific medication and treatment to empower and support those who work with me. I am passionate about helping families navigate communication, conflict, and problem-solving challenges. I enjoy supporting adults and children with ADHD, Autism (Asperger’s), and executive functioning issues. To best support my clients, I have extensive training in counseling and assessment for autism, ADHD, giftedness, and learning disabilities.

My therapeutic approach focuses on helping you find answers, identify solutions, and learn new skills to tackle “gridlocked” life issues. I am dedicated to guiding you and your family toward a richer, fuller, and more meaningful life. My mission is to ensure you feel understood, empowered, and supported. I focus on helping you clarify what’s truly important and meaningful, using that knowledge to set goals and take actions that enrich your life. I have extensive expertise providing therapy to children, teens, couples, and families.

My Hobbies & Interests

I love being outdoors, whether it’s hiking up trails or just hanging out with my dog. With a background in sports and fitness, staying active is a big part of my life, and I used to coach swim and strength training. I’m always up for an adventure and love taking risks. Living with ADHD has made me a passionate mental health advocate. If you’re into exploring nature, working out, or just having great conversations about mental health, we should definitely connect!
