In my therapy practice, I use a range of evidence-based techniques, tailored specifically to meet the needs of autistic and similarly neurodivergent individuals and their families.
I support clients in addressing a variety of clinical issues, including anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, life transitions, relationship challenges, family conflict, and self-esteem. I draw from diverse therapeutic approaches, including:
Cognitive Behavioral
Therapy (CBT)
I customize CBT to individuals on the autism spectrum, helping them reframe negative thoughts and develop healthier behaviors. This approach teaches practical skills to manage emotions and behaviors through structured techniques, which can be particularly effective in improving emotional regulation and social interactions.
Solution-Focused
Therapy
Focused on finding practical solutions, this approach empowers clients to envision their desired future and take actionable steps toward their goals. Together, we work on building strategies that are both achievable and effective.
Positive
Psychology
Centered on enhancing well-being and happiness, positive psychology helps clients cultivate optimism, gratitude, and other positive emotions, which can significantly improve overall life satisfaction.
Collaborative
Therapy
I work as a partner with my clients, emphasizing open dialogue and co-creating solutions using collaborative therapy techniques. This approach values the expertise and perspectives of each individual and family member, fostering a strong sense of ownership in the therapeutic process.
Strength-Based
Techniques
By focusing on your strengths, we build resilience and harness your inherent capabilities to navigate challenges. This positive approach encourages self-confidence and growth.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
ACT helps individuals accept their thoughts and feelings without judgment while committing to actions aligned with their values. It’s particularly effective in managing anxiety and stress by fostering psychological flexibility.
