Intro

Hello and welcome! I am a licensed psychologist in California with over 15 years of experience providing behavioral health services and working with diverse populations. I have lots of experience working with those who may have never worked with psychologists or mental health providers before.

What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

As we age and develop, we are constantly working to better understand ourselves and our relationships. Having a better understanding of our own level of neurodivergence can be one step in this important path.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

Everyone has strengths and unique perspectives that provide value. Even when some might be misunderstood at times, understanding oneself better can lead to increased ability to navigate life and achieve personal goals. Creating a safe and non-judgmental space is an important part of listening and connection.
