- ADD/ADHD
- Dyslexia & Other Learning Disabilities
- Autism Spectrum Disorders (including Asperger’s Syndrome)

We are client-centered in our philosophy. That is, we know that you possess many strengths, resources, and resiliencies. We believe that the most effective way to help you achieve your goals is to partner with you in discovering possibilities for growth and change.
We use the most effective evidence-based practices in our work with you (e.g., cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, solution-oriented therapy, positive psychology). However, we know that flexibly adapting to your specific needs is critical to gaining the positive outcomes that you desire. As our client, we always keep you at the center of the change process.
