I support youth, adults, and families with affirming, trauma-informed care. As a neurodivergent therapist, I have a unique lens to work with neurodiverse clients; however, you do not need a diagnosis to benefit from neurodiverse affirming care. My approach is validating, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s strengths.
I provide affirming, trauma-informed support for youth (11+), adults, and families. As a neurodivergent therapist, I understand the stress of masking and the need for a space where you can just be yourself. I use practical, strengths-based approaches to help clients build coping tools, emotional awareness, and self-trust.
You deserve support that truly fits you. Therapy with me is a place where you can unmask, slow down, and be fully yourself. Whether you're figuring out who you are, learning new skills, or just trying to feel a little less overwhelmed. I know how exhausting it is to feel like you have to explain your brain to everyone. You don’t have to do that here.

I offer a person-centered approach where I tailor our sessions to your needs. I often use Dialectical Behavioural Therapy in my practice, but I also l find Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and bits of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy very beneficial for many clients. In our first session, we explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the best way to help you reach your goals.
