Clinical Specialties

Specialties

With over a decade of experience, I continue to find that many intertwined experiences and challenges exist in the same person and body, and I have acquired training and experience in working with the many interrelated challenges people face in order to best serve my clients. It is typical to have fewer specialties, however, I have found it I am able to provide more effective integrated care that addresses the intersections of multiple challenges and issues and how they affect and impact people.

Anxiety

Anxiety is all about worries, fears, concerns, and that these feelings are 'more intense' than most people experience them

Life skills | life transitions | adjustments | changes

What big changes are happening in your life? Do you need more support to make them happen, or to talk about how they are impacting you?

ADHD | 'neurospicy'

Do you experience overwhelm, avoidance, decision paralysis? Are repetitive tasks more difficult for you than others? Does this create challenges at home, work, or school? Are you wanting to explore how to deal with these challenges?
