About Me

I have been working with individuals on the Autism Spectrum and other developmental differences for over 30 years in educational and clinical settings.  I have developed a body of knowledge and expertise that enables me to work closely with my clients in areas of life that matter greatly.  Although being neurodiverse poses challenges, being different in a world of "normalcy" takes courage and heroic effort.  I respect this in those I work with and strive to support self-acceptance and growth.

My credentials and affiliations are as follows:

Masters in Social Work - University of Iowa

Certificate in Sexual Education - University of Michigan

Member of National Association of Social Workers

Member of NADD - An association for persons with Developmental Disabilities and Mental Health Needs 

Member of The Arc of Oakland County
