Services

I provide counseling, consultation, program development, professional development, and assessment.

Consultation/
Direct Behavioral Services

I consult with school districts and mental health agencies on managing behavior and mental health needs.

Counseling

As a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Board Certified Counselor, I provide individual, couples, group, and family counseling using evidence-based approaches, including CBT and Solution-Focused Therapy.

Program Development

Using a systems approach, I have developed social-emotional learning programs, behavior management programs, ISS/ISI programs, and the Safe Zone LGBTQ+ competency certification.

Professional Development

I offer professional development ranging from 30-minute sessions to multi-day workshops on mental health diagnoses and treatment, suicide assessment, special education services, social-emotional learning, and behavior management.

Assessment

My licensure, certifications, and graduate training allow me to diagnose and behaviorally treat mental health disorders using valid, reliable assessment instruments. I also have extensive experience conducting functional behavioral assessments (FBAs) and school-referred risk assessments.
