About

I carry a diverse caseload of adults, young adults, and teens (17+) with an emphasis on working with clients who are parents or caregivers of, siblings of, and people with developmental disabilities. I have been working with families who have children with unique needs for 10 years as both an advocate and a therapist. I believe in helping people to problem-solve and create opportunities for themselves.
