Many people come to therapy having felt a chronic sense of loneliness or disconnection, having had to hide or reject parts of the self in an effort to find belonging. Therapy is, for many of us, one of the only spaces where we can allow ourselves to be honestly seen without judgment or expectations. It can become an important place to express and explore the emotions and experiences that have built up over time and are now feeling heavy, tangled up, overwhelming, or stuck.
I am experienced in working with trauma, eating disorders, and neurodivergence. Therapy with me tends to be deep, thought-provoking, emotional, and of course, a little bit awkward! Clients bring all sorts of quirks and strengths into therapy, and I love being able to lean into those even as we process the heavy and uncomfortable parts of their experience.
Although I work with all types of people, as a neurodivergent therapist I offer people who identify as neurodivergent - creative, ADHD, AuDHD, Autistic, gifted, or highly sensitive - an experience of shared communication and perceptive styles.

Many of my clients struggle with a chronic feeling of not being good enough or able to be accepted for who they are. Clients often appreciate the warmth, sincerity, and thoughtful questions I bring to our work together as we balance acceptance, resistance, and hope for change.
