I do not believe anyone to be a true expert in the fields of human behavior, especially in regard to neurodiversity and mental health. With that said, I have devoted the past 30 years of my life to specializing in just that. I will never claim to have all the answers, but I promise you I will always try my hardest to find them for you. I obtained my doctorate through LaSalle University in Philadelphia, and completed my internship at YCS Institute for Infant Mental Health.
I do not approach therapy in a one size fits all cookie cutter manner, but rather take the time to get to know each of my clients personally. Through our relationship we build trust, and it is in that trust that they feel safe enough to engage in change and growth.
I have devoted the bulk of my career to human development, including neurodiverse populations such as those on the autism spectrum, who also have co-occurring psychiatric needs. My infant and early childhood expertise lays the foundation from which work with all my clients (regardless of age or developmental capacity) is formed. I am a true believer that those early life experiences influence who we are as individuals throughout the lifespan.
