About the Practice *

With a background in applied behavior analysis, my approach to counseling maintains meeting clients where they’re at. As a former school social worker, I not only have a well rounded approach to mental health and systems, but I also have extensive knowledge around how certain disabilities impact access to services and outward behavior. My services are strengths based and collaborative.
