Great to meet you!

Because of my son that is neurodivergent (Autistic) and I also self-identify as neurodivergent, I am personally and professionally committed to serving our neurodivergent individuals and their families, especially those that have been recently diagnosed. As a Certified Financial Social Worker, I have specialized in the areas of Life-Changes and finances leading to the ability to help clients achieve long-term financial behavioral change, so they can focus on other areas of their lives. I provide interventions via individual, group, and family work as appropriate as well as workshops and training for Professionals and Clients as needed.

My approach to therapy

Each Client gets a tailored approach based on their specific needs. I borrow from various approaches and forms of therapy equipping each client with the tools that they need to accomplish the goals that they set out to accomplish.

What you can expect from me

Clients will walk away from therapy feeling understood and with the tools and tangible skills and resources to work towards growth and transformation and a growth mindset developed during the sessions.
