I primarily work with neurodivergent individuals explore their identity, diagnosis and goals. My passion is working with families and couples in which one or multiple members are a part of the neurodivergent community.
I look at therapy through a Dialectic Behavioral lens. However, I integrate other approaches such as: art therapy, play therapy, and mindfulness based on the needs and comfortability of the individual. I offer different approaches to everyday issues, in order to provide a different perspective to what you are brining into each session.
The work of therapy is not a one size fits all. I look forward to joining in a collaborative space to talk through what works best for you and bring a personalized approach for your differently wired brain. Reach out for a discovery call or through email to find out if we would be a good fit!

I primarily work with individuals diagnosed with Autism and ADHD gain self awareness and meet personal goals. My passion as a therapist is to provide neuro-affirming care by taking a personalized approach to your therapy experience.
