She holds an undergraduate degree in Psychology and a Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California and maintains licensure in California and Tennessee. Autumn works with issues across a broad range of specialties listed in her profile, including parenting, grief, ADHD, LGBT concerns, and trauma and abuse.

Online therapy approach
Autumn adapts a client-centered framework to remote work, beginning from each person's priorities and collaborating to set goals. Cognitive behavioral techniques, including trauma-focused CBT when relevant, are used to identify patterns of thinking and behavior and to build practical strategies for coping and symptom management.
When exploring relational patterns and attachment history, she may draw on attachment-based or psychodynamic approaches to help clarify recurring dynamics. Motivational interviewing is used to support readiness for change and to strengthen commitment to agreed-upon steps.
Sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This mix of methods and communication options is intended for people who prefer a collaborative process that balances skills-building, reflective exploration, and practical planning.What is Autumn's clinical background?
