I am a neurodivergent-affirming clinician, and specialize in supporting clients 18+ who realize they are Gifted, (high-masking) Autistic and/or ADHD later in life. I also specialize in treating C-PTSD, anxiety/depression, and burnout. Are you looking to dive into deep, meaningful long-term work that may lead to increased self-awareness, acceptance, and improved ways of coping, thus allowing you to move through the world with more ease and freedom? Then you and I might be a good fit!
During each session, we will work together to co-create a safe space to explore what's in your head and heart. I integrate variety of evidence-based practices to ensure that our work supports your unique needs and goals, including Humanistic and Existential Psychotherapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS).
I offer free 15 min consultations for new clients in order to ensure that us working together will be a good fit. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, or to schedule a consultation. I look forward to hearing your story, and embarking on this journey of self-discovery and healing with you.

I offer a sanctuary space for neurospicy humans to explore their inner landscape. My clients and I spend intentional time moving between what's in their head and heart, and all the layers in between. Together, we'll take a break from the noise and demands of the external world, and by slowing down and tuning in to your inner nature, we'll create space for deep knowing to arise from within.
