You are likely here because something needs to change. You might be feeling overwhelmed and hoping to pave a new way forward. My clients struggle as you do. Despite their intelligence and perseverance, life feels hard. They've recently been diagnosed with ADHD and/or autism, and while it's given them some answers, they feel sad or uncertain. They feel like an imposter and are tired of masking who they are. Past challenges/traumas impact them, through avoidance of scenarios and unwanted memories. Like my clients, you deserve to find relief, fulfillment, and re-connection. Send me a message to get started.
I specialize in working with 20 to 30 something women and nonbinary folks navigating disconnection from themselves and the natural world, and hoping to better understand and accommodate their neurodivergence. I offer outdoor nature sessions, and am trained in modalities (IFS, ART) designed to aid with processing trauma.
Counseling can help us increase our understanding of ourselves, acknowledge the source of our challenges, and allow us to heal through authentic and compassionate connection. It can help us create opportunities for safety and joy and experience more fulfilling lives and relationships. I would be honored to be a part of this journey with you.
