About My Clients
All clients are welcome. However, I excel in working with individuals, couples and families who experience unique challenges related to neurodivergence like ADHD, ASD, Giftedness, and OCD to name some of the common experiences that present in my practice. Most of my clients are working through cptsd, disordered eating, substance use, gender and sexuality concerns, burnout, and other life challenges that are a part of their neurodivergence.
My Background and Approach
As a social worker, my experiences are varied and include a wide spectrum of training opportunities to address concerns across the lifespan. Over the course of my social work career I have received training in end-of-life care, crisis mental health care, child and adolescent mental health, eating disorders, OCD, trauma, self-harm, couple counseling and substance use. I use a variety of modalities that are tailored to the individual or family to include internal family systems therapy, narrative therapy, art therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, brainspotting, exposure with response prevention, harm reduction and motivational interviewing.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I feel that the social work principals of autonomy, self-determination, and unconditional positive regard embody the culture I aim to create within my practice. I believe that each person has everything they need to grow into the person they want to be within them, and often may benefit from someone to walk the path with them. Having a wide variety of interests has been tremendously beneficial in my day job as I love learning about culture, religion, sexuality, and different ways of living. I am staunchly opposed to diet culture and lean heavily into the HAES aligned approach to serving others, which allows me to channel my education in kinesiology. Personally, I have lived experience that matches many of my clients, which allows me to empathize with them on a deeper level they may not experience with others. I am a die-hard cat lady, enjoy anime, reading books from my endless TBR, and am on a first name basis with my local gym staff. It would be my honor to support you on your journey
