Are you parenting a neurodivergent child and feel overwhelmed, isolated, or emotionally drained? You may be balancing worry and advocacy fatigue with trying to stay patient and present. You are holding everything together while navigating school meetings, family tension, and unexpected meltdowns. You may have faced criticism or dismissal in the past, growing self-doubt while placing confidence just out of reach. You want support that truly understands the emotional weight you carry and reassurance that you are not failing. As a mom of neurodivergent children, I understand the daily struggle.

I specialize in parenting support, anxiety, and stress management using neurodiversity-affirming therapy, with a special interest in ADHD, Autism, and PDA. Together, we regulate overwhelm, build confidence, and release self-blame while gaining an understanding of your child’s behavior. Also welcoming neurodivergent adults seeking support or evaluation!

I welcome you to reach out through email or the direct link on my website to book a free consultation. My style is warm, compassionate, affirming, and customized to you. This is a judgment-free space where we can prioritize your needs so you can keep showing up for others! Let’s get started!
