About me

With over 30 years of experience as a therapist, I offer a seasoned combination of wisdom, current relevance and flexible interventions. I have seen trends come and go in the fields of psychology and counseling, so I like to identify your particular needs and tailor treatment modalities to your unique circumstances and expectations. I enjoy helping people discover their true needs/desires and pursuing their dreams, potential and meeting their life goals. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression. trauma and neurodiversity (autism, ADHD, traumatic brain injury, etc.). I enjoy working with individuals of all age and work mostly with longer-term clients who are interested in lasting, life growth work. I own an autism consulting business and am a Certified Autism Specialist, a Board Certified Telemental Health Provider, a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and a Clinical Supervisor (for AL). I have worked in multiple settings – inpatient, outpatient, day treatment, residential, in-home, private practice and, of course, virtual. My pioneering work with online counseling in the 90s (pre-Google!) was featured on Oprah’s network and in Glamour Magazine, so I come to you with the highest of standards in the field. I typically use cognitive-behavioral therapy, skills-building from dialectical-behavioral therapy and neuroeducation (teaching about how your mind-body chemicals spur your feelings which lead to thoughts, behaviors and habits). I believe that people change when they’re ready – my goal is to help you get ready to change and then to support you through change. You know you can’t directly change others, but you CAN change yourself – and by doing so, you help change the world for the better, one step at a time. And it all starts with you! Let’s create a treatment plan that is both realistic and challenging for you – one that involves a precise balance of safety and risk, comfort and courage. My clients say I’m easy and fun to work with because of the combination of my personality, professional and personal experience…and thus I use a balanced combination of compassion, reality and humor. Change is hard enough – why not make it fun, meaningful and enjoy the journey? I look forward to working with you! Ready? Set….Grow!!
