I understand how hard getting support can feel; not knowing how talking might help or if you’re ready to let someone share your inner world. Finding the right fit for you shouldn’t also be part of the struggle. Most people come to therapy to stop hiding. But for Neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ communities, the therapy can sometimes feel like another place where you must mask, explain yourself, or justify your sensory needs. Whether you’re processing or exploring ADHD/Autism/AuDHD, exploring your gender or sexuality, or just ‘managing’ living in an inhospitable world, I provide a space where you don't have to translate yourself.
I have an affinity with the experience of feeling different; particularly when this feeling affects our daily lives. I have experience in advocating for and supporting the transgender community and I have lived experience of nuerodivergence.

I recognise that we all exist in different ways and my approach will recognise that; whether working with you using creative methods or sitting and talking, your session is unique to you. As a humanistic practitioner I believe everyone has the capacity to heal and move forward; my role is not diagnose you but to support you in exploring and understanding what you struggle with.
