Sometimes life is just achingly hard. Despite best efforts, the weight of our burdens can overwhelm us. When we're stuck in the dark, ways to move forward might feel impossible. Therapy is a safe haven to set down your cares, to explore what hurts, what's not working, and what you wish were different. It's space where you're free to wonder, discover personal strengths, and challenge old or unhelpful narratives.
My goal is to help you move towards deeper self-understanding, resilience and ease in life.

As a neurodivergent person with ADHD myself, I know some of the difficulties you may face. If you have ADHD and/or are Autistic, you’ve probably spent many years trying to fight your own brain and force yourself to act “normal,” but find this never works in the long run. Or perhaps you have someone in your life who is neurodivergent, and are struggling meet their needs and your own. You may experience painful emotions, difficulty understanding yourself, and frustrating personal relationships. Navigating life can be overwhelming when you're neurodivergent, but I firmly believe there is hope, and I want you to feel hopeful too.

You might be someone who shows up for others but struggles to feel truly seen. Maybe you overthink relationships, second-guess yourself, or feel stuck in patterns like people-pleasing, burnout, or disconnection. You’re self-aware but tired of just coping. My ideal client wants real change — more clarity, self-trust, and honest connection. You might relate to anxious attachment, ADHD, or autism — or you're just starting to explore those parts of yourself. Therapy can help you make sense of it all with compassion.
