This personal experience, combined with his clinical expertise, allows him to offer innovative, tailored strategies to support individuals navigating ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). He is passionate about helping both adults and children better understand themselves, manage challenges, and harness their unique strengths.
