With over a decade of dedicated practice, including 10 years within the school system and extensive private work with high school and college teens, as well as adults, I offer a nuanced understanding of diverse needs. I specialize in guiding individuals through complexities related to **ADHD, neurodiversity, executive function challenges, anxiety, depression, and significant life transitions.**
Beyond individual and family support, I provide strategic coaching for work transitions, guiding professionals through career shifts with clarity and purpose. My expertise extends to business coaching and board coaching, where I apply the transformative Adaptive Leadership model to empower leaders and organizations to thrive through change.

A **Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP)** specializes in communication disorders, helping individuals with speech, language, voice, and swallowing difficulties. A **Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW)** focuses on mental health and social well-being, providing therapy, counseling, and support to individuals, families, and groups to address emotional, social, and behavioral challenges. My dual licensure allows for a comprehensive, integrated approach to your care.
To provide maximum flexibility and accessibility, all my services are proudly offered **remotely**. This allows you to receive support from the comfort and convenience of your own home, eliminating travel time and geographical barriers.
Your first session will be a confidential and collaborative space for us to get to know each other. We'll discuss your current concerns, goals, and what you hope to gain from our work together. It's also an opportunity for you to ask any questions and determine if my approach is a good fit for you. My aim is for you to feel heard, understood, and comfortable.
I currently operate as an **out-of-network provider**. This means I do not directly bill insurance companies. However, I can provide you with a detailed invoice (superbill) that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement, depending on your plan's out-of-network benefits. I recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to inquire about your specific coverage for out-of-network mental health services.
