Are you a neurodivergent or highly sensitive person (HSP) who struggles with feeling overwhelmed and exhausted all the time? Does it feel like you get hijacked by your emotions and past trauma plays over and over in your mind? I get it. The world leads us to believe that if we struggle with intense emotions, overwhelm or letting go of the past, there must be something wrong with us. I’m here to tell you that nothing is wrong with you. You’re not broken, the way you feel is not your fault, and healing is possible. I’m Sera, and as a neurodivergent therapist with ADHD I understand the struggle.

Creating a safe space where clients can feel comfortable is the top priority for me in my practice. It can feel overwhelming to share your challenges and struggles with someone you've just met. When we start working together, we will begin by building a comfortable therapeutic relationship. For some people, that may only take a session or two, and for others, we will take a little more time to get there. We will go at a pace that feels comfortable for you. As we get to know each other, we will also work together to begin to stretch your comfort zone little by little, in order to help you make progress toward your goals. I graduated
