Mild-Moderate Disabilities was my focus in graduate school at Lesley University, where I earned my Master of Education.

Counseling Background:

I have worked closely with young people diagnosed with a variety of exceptionalities, including ASD, learning disabilities, and attention disorders. I enjoy working with families, children, teens, and young adults with a variety of challenges, including anxiety, self esteem, mood regulation, and adjustment difficulties. I continue to attend workshops and seminars to keep up with the latest research for social emotional development. My latest professional development workshop certifications include: “Art Therapy Techniques for Children and Teens”, and “Anxiety in Children”. I help youth to navigate social-emotional challenges, and build confidence in creative ways.  I have had a variety of experiences in the field of education, special education, psychology, mindfulness, and child development. As a counselor, I use techniques from a variety of counseling approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral, Behavioral, Mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
