Are you Autistic or ADHD and want a therapist who actually understands your struggles, strengths, and needs of your neurotype? Have you tried therapy and felt like you still weren’t understood and that it didn’t work for you? What would your life be like if you quit masking and spending energy trying to fit in, only to still feel like an outsider? How would it feel to work with a therapist who was also neurodivergent and helped you see that you’re not broken, rather trying to survive in an environment that wasn’t made to fit you? Looking for a nerdy therapist who can teach you healthy methods to hack your brain? That's me!
Imagine if you could get to a place where you’re not consumed by pain, overwhelm, and exhaustion. Where you could learn to trust yourself and stop trying to fit neurotypical expectations that don’t work for you. I want you to experience the joy of learning how to be your most authentic self and nurture your strengths while accommodating your weaknesses.
I’m an Autistic and ADHD therapist that understands the challenges of making and keeping relationships, the cycle of high performance then burnout, and being told repeatedly by the world that you’re too much and not enough. If you’re ready to stop living a life that doesn’t work for you, schedule a 30 minute free consultation with me today. I can help.
