I have been working in mental health and related fields for 8 years. I started working with teens with ADHD, Autism, intellectual and developmental disorders in schools. I worked with youth who survived trauma for a year before moving to a hybrid program where I've worked with adults and youth from diverse populations including veterans.
I've seen my clients get the most benefits from ADHD and autism affirming family therapies and trauma therapy using EMDR and Internal Family Systems therapy.
I use a warm relaxed approach, prioritize client choice and empowerment. I have a no judgement practice. EMDR is also one of few therapies that is effective at treating post traumatic stress without requiring disclosure of the details.
A first session we complete a Bio-Psycho-social assessment, looking for contributing factors. We collaborate on treatment goals and set priorities on how to work toward those goals.
