My Approach

I offer a neuroaffirmative, relationship-based approach to therapy. That means we focus on:


– Understanding behaviors as meaningful communication.
– Supporting emotional regulation, not compliance.
– Creating environments where your child can feel safe, seen, and understood.

​

Rather than asking “How do we stop this behavior?” we ask:
“What is your child experiencing, and how can we support them?”

​

WHO I WORK WITH:

​

I work with:
– Autistic and neurodivergent children and teens (I welcome adults too.)
– Children experiencing sensory, emotional, or cognitive overload (meltdowns, shutdowns and burnout).
– Parents who want to better understand their child and feel more confident in how they support them.

​

Sessions are fully online, making support accessible, flexible, and consistent.

 

WHAT WORKING TOGETHER LOOKS LIKE:

Therapy is not just about your child—it’s about the relationship around them.

 

We may work on:
– Understanding meltdowns as nervous system overload (it's not misbehavior).
– Supporting your child in recognizing and moving through their emotional experiences. 
– Helping parents respond in ways that feel more connected, grounded, and aligned with their child’s needs. 
– Gently reducing shame that can build when children are misunderstood and increasing connection.

 

Parent sessions are often a key part of the process.

​

WHY ONLINE THERAPY WORKS:

Online therapy allows your child to engage from a familiar, comfortable space.

It also allows us to:

– Work within real-life contexts
– Include parents more naturally and consistently
– Reduce stress related to transitions, new environments, or unfamiliar settings.

​

This approach is not about changing who your child is—it’s about understanding them more deeply and supporting them in feeling safe, capable, and connected.
