Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, based in Florida I received my Masters degree from Syracuse University and have been practicing for 9 years. I mainly work with adults who have an Autism Spectrum Disorder to help them navigate the unique challenges they face. I also specialize in treating trauma, helping you process it so the it is not impacting so many aspects of your life.
Our first session, I will gather more information about you, your history with psychotherapy, and what your goals for therapy are. During this first session, I also ask some safety questions, and talk to you about the assessments you completed. I also allow time and space for you to ask questions of me.
I am the parent of a young adult with an Autism Spectrum Disorder, and have watched (and helped him through) numerous challenges. I have also worked with children and young adults on the spectrum for 15 years in different settings.
I love working with adults who have an Autism Spectrum Disorder, helping them navigate anxiety, depression, and social interactions.
I utilize CBT throughout sessions, teaching you how to change your negative thought patterns
