Individual clients welcome. In my professional journey, I've had the privilege of guiding thousands of clients from diverse backgrounds, each with their own unique stories and challenges. I help individuals cultivate a deep understanding of their emotions, fostering emotional intelligence that is crucial for personal growth. I strive to create a space where feelings are acknowledged and processed, to clear a path for success. Embracing wellbeing as a fundamental aspect of strength is at the heart of my approach. The goal is for you to become an insightful expert of your own life - past, present and future.

I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, regardless of their background or circumstances. Whether you are struggling with excessive worry or negative thoughts, overwhelmed by schoolwork as a student, supporting a family member with autism or developmental disability, or facing challenges as a member of a marginalized group in society, it is common to feel hopeless and worthless at times. However, you do not have to give in to these feelings. Together, we will overcome obstacles by empowering you, developing strategies for managing negative feelings, improving your self-identity, and gaining a deeper understanding of yourself.

For the past 15 years I have worked with children, adolescents and adults with ASD, depression, anxiety and trauma. These individuals are often impacted by emotional dysregulation, which limits their potential and reduces their ability to participate and succeed in specific environments.

My work focuses on supporting abilities, recognizing strengths, honoring differences and valuing uniqueness while providing opportunities to observe their patterns of behavior that inhibit them from taking action.
