About Autumn
She started her career supporting young adults on a college campus, helping with anxiety, depression, identity development, and big life changes. That work shaped her view of how early relationships and life-stage stress affect self-worth and emotional control. Later she worked on the Orange County Crisis Assessment Team, where she learned to remain calm and grounded while de-escalating high-risk situations.
In private practice she sees people dealing with anxiety, anger, and recurring communication problems in relationships. She helps clients spot the patterns that drive their feelings and behavior so they can make different choices. Her style blends evidence-based tools with warmth and directness.
Autumn uses a Gottman-informed approach for relationship concerns, focusing on attachment wounds, rebuilding trust after betrayal, and improving communication. Her work is practical and collaborative, emphasizing skills people can use between sessions.
She believes hard experiences can lead to growth when they are handled with care. Autumn aims to offer a nonjudgmental and honest therapeutic relationship that helps people find meaning and more steady emotional balance.

How evidence-based work translates to online sessions
Autumn draws on practical, evidence-based techniques to help with anger, anxiety, and relationship patterns. One approach she uses is Gottman-informed work, which focuses on communication skills, repairing trust, and addressing attachment wounds in relationships. This method centers on concrete exercises and habits that can reduce conflict and increase connection.She also applies tools that target emotional regulation and anxiety, helping people recognize triggers, slow escalation, and practice new responses. These skills emphasize small, repeatable practices that reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Autumn will review your goals and preferences and recommend techniques that fit your situation. She works together with clients to try methods, adjust what’s not working, and build a plan that feels realistic.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can focus on skill practice between meetings. Many licensed professionals use online work to help clients apply tools in real settings and keep momentum between sessions.
