I am a licensed, board certified occupational therapist. I specialize in the treatment of mental health conditions impairing function/daily routines (and ability to perform at work and/or school). Conditions treated include but are not limited to anxiety, depression, tic disorders/Tourette/OCD/Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (skin picking, hair pulling), executive functioning, obesity, lifestyle/wellness habits to reverse heart disease/diabetes, joint and physical challenges among children, teens, and adults. I am certified in Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (and Tourette Syndrome). View 6 Photos Using a holistic integrative approach, my passion is helping others, through recovery-oriented approaches, to learn how to implement habits and routines that support sustained wellness needed for daily living and working so you can learn how to help yourself and rediscover more joy! Going through difficulties can feel like a hopeless and overwhelming experience for any person. Even if you're not the person directly experiencing that difficulty, watching your loved one or child struggle and not feeling you can effectively help, can feel just as overwhelming. My passion is to help others learn to heal themselves, with joy and laughter.
