I provide coaching and therapy for autism and Asperger's and have been doing so for 30 years. Most of my clients consider themselves autistic or on the autism spectrum. My clients learn to understand autism on a deeper level. I work with my clients on black-and-white thinking, expressing emotions, the need for masking, and understanding the needs of others. My clients learn to prioritize flexibility from a heartfelt standpoint to achieve a better career, relationship, or social life. I also train parents to teach this process to their children. Parents learn to address difficult behaviors and limitations in communication.

My approach is best described as interactive, personable, nonjudgmental, and aimed at bringing about change that's both meaningful and real. I tend not to view people's issues or concerns as a form of pathology or neurosis, but rather as particular problems in living. I see each person as genuinely unique, and so avoid cookie-cutter approaches. My role is to help individuals and couples work through problems as effectively and efficiently as possible, in a way that builds confidence, self-respect, hope, and, ultimately, a fresh way of living life.

Do you feel unsettled, unnerved, or just stuck in the mundane? Do you ever feel like you're not good enough? Do fears, excuses or worries keep you from truly enjoying your life? You deserve to LIVE your life! Because we tend to adapt to our surroundings, we are often “just making the situation work.” We don’t realize we are experiencing more stress, overwhelming emotion, and burden than we need. There is another way, but finding it alone can be very challenging. My goal is to help YOU get where you want to be, have the life you want. I help clients to get up, out and make changes in their lives.
