Approach to Therapy

As a late-diagnosed neurodivergent practitiner, It’s important at to me that your assessment not JUST have a diagnosis as the outcome — but that those who work with me walk away with clarity, resources in their community/local area, and a plan for their continued care. A diagnosis/assessment shouldn’t be the “end” of your journey— it’s the jumping off point to reframing and understanding yourself, the way you interact with the world, and have support for advocating for your needs post-evaluation with others in your life! In my assessment work, I pull from my own experiences and those of the many folks I've worked with in the last 10 years to get at all of the "nitty gritty" details, especially about the "how" you have managed/survived up to the time you walk into my office (literally and virtually) to better understand your coping mechanisms, compensatory skills, and struggles for getting through day-to-day life.
