I specialize in diagnosing individuals with neurodivergence (ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, learning differences) and mood and anxiety disorders through psychodiagnostic and neuropsychological testing.

For therapy, I help patients with attentional difficulties, learning differences, and social challenges by leaning on my training in CBT, DBT, behavioral activation, and Motivational Interviewing. I ensure my patients learn skills to improve their lives, all while feeling seen, heard, and understood.
