I am a teacher-turned-therapist whose primary experience has been in forming therapeutic relationships with people of all ages with varying neurotypes and disabilities. I balance a behavioral perspective with the willingness to look beyond behavior and witness the unique personhood, joy, and pain that a client may present during our work together. I have specialized in helping youths with ASD cultivate emotional exploration and a sense of autonomous self. Currently I am Program Manager at Parkview Services Group Home where I coordinate clinical care for a small population of Disabled adults and manage a team of fifteen care workers.
