Meet Betsy
Understanding your brain, supporting your life.
I became a counselor because I’ve always been interested in how people think, learn, feel, and adapt—especially those whose brains don’t always fit a typical mold. Over nearly ten years, I’ve helped neurodivergent adults, children, teens, and families navigate ADHD, autism, anxiety, executive-functioning challenges, depression, perfectionism, and more.
My own journey with ADHD has shaped the way I understand and support my clients. I wasn’t diagnosed with ADHD until college, after years of trying to push through challenges without understanding why certain things seemed harder for me than they did for others. That experience gave me a personal understanding of what it can feel like to work incredibly hard without having the right framework or tools for how your brain works. It also deepened my belief that understanding yourself and building self-compassion can be powerful first steps toward meaningful change.
My approach is affirming, collaborative, warm, and practical. Together, we’ll explore your strengths, develop strategies that actually work for your life, and create a space where you can be yourself. I believe therapy should feel safe, flexible, and sometimes even a little fun—all while helping you make meaningful progress toward your goals.
My Approach
I take a strengths-based, neurodivergent-affirming approach, emphasizing understanding and practical support. Therapy may include:
Exploring identity and self-understanding
Improving communication and relationships
Developing strategies to manage anxiety and overwhelm
Building executive functioning skills
Creating systems that work with your brain rather than against it
My goal is always to honor your unique experiences while helping you thrive in daily life.
Who I Work With
I primarily work with:
Neurodivergent adults and teens
Individuals exploring or newly diagnosed with ADHD or autism
Clients experiencing anxiety or perfectionism
People looking to strengthen executive functioning and daily life skills
Families navigating conflict and seeking to strengthen relationships
I also offer therapeutic and skills-based groups, focused on topics like social connection, shared interests, and executive functioning.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with experience in individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy. As the former Director of Therapy at Threshold Community Program, a therapeutic program and school for neurodivergent adolescents and adults, I’ve worked with individuals and families as they navigate transitions, build regulation and self-advocacy skills, understand individual differences, and develop authentic relationships.
My training includes neurodivergent-affirming care, ADHD and executive functioning support, anxiety and perfectionism, family, couples, and group therapy facilitation.
I’ve spent nearly a decade helping clients develop practical skills, gain self-understanding, and build meaningful change in their lives.
