Neurodiversity refers to variances in how our brains function. This can include neurodevelopmental issues such being on the autism spectrum, having ADHD, auditory or sensory processing issues, learning disabilities, and/or neurologically based mental health issues such as chronic anxiety, depression, OCD, or PTSD.

We do this by offering therapy, coaching, consultation, or education for individuals, couples and families, as well as business consultations.

Do you find yourself trying to make everyone around you happy but yourself? Do you try to intellectualize your way out of your feelings? Do you feel on edge or anxious most of the time? Our minds and bodies do a wonderful job of helping us survive traumatic experiences, but these survival techniques can also begin to impact our connection with ourselves, our relationships, our purpose, and much more. Through exploring past experiences, strengthening the mind-body connection, and continuing to be curious and compassionate towards self, we can begin to shift ourselves out of survival mode into a life we choose.

It takes courage to address difficulties in our lives and finding a therapist can be challenging.

Together, we can assist you in effectively navigating this journey while simultaneously developing the skills necessary to living a mindful, fulfilling, and connected life.

Does life seem picture-perfect on the surface, yet deep down, something feels amiss? Despite your achievements, there's a lingering sense of emptiness that just won't go away. Perhaps a significant life event—something from the past, or more recently—has brought this feeling to the forefront, urging you to seek change, even if you're uncertain about the specifics. You're yearning for deeper self-awareness and ready to break free from old patterns to cultivate a more fulfilling life.

Feeling overwhelmed, hopeless or stuck? When feeling miserable, life is not moving in the direction we want, and everything we have tried so far has not worked - it can lead to despair. These feelings are only made worse when we believe that there is no one we can turn to or no one else could understand. I am here to say that despite how it may seem right now, these feelings do not have to dominate your life. Working together, we will review factors that contribute to these feelings and work on new strategies so that you can move closer to the life you want to live.

Mental health distress becomes much more manageable with some awareness and perspective. I am here to help with that.

Regardless of where you find yourself, you deserve to feel supported, understood, and heard. Life brings us so many seasons. Some seasons can be challenging, making us question our purpose and worth. Other seasons feel permanent, leaving us feeling stuck and hopeless. Or maybe we experience a change, forcing us to shift and transition. My desire is to meet you exactly where you are, no matter the season you find yourself in. I hope to walk with you towards a place of growth as you realize your strengths and self-worth.
