I specialize in working with neurodivergent individuals, providing therapy from a neuro-positive perspective. I especially enjoy helping individuals navigate autistic burnout and shame. I use techniques from Acceptance and Committment Therapy and mindfulness-based stress reduction. I work best with individuals who enjoy structure in therapy. Please note that beginning in April of 2026, I will be providing therapy sessions online only.
I provide therapy for both Cigna and private pay clients and am able to see clients in almost every U.S. state. If you have Aetna insurance, please indicate that in your email, and I can direct you towards my Headway platform.
Therapy is not a magical process-it works when clients feel connected to their therapist and when we put in consistent work. I try to walk the line between empathizing with my clients when they are in burnout and pushing them to use strategies we discuss in therapy. Therapy with me is a partnership in building resilience in the context of empathy.
