NOW offering ADULT autism and ADHD assessments. Are you LGBTQ, chronically ill, or Neurodivergent and seeking a therapist who can understand the nuance of those identities? Are you working hard to break generational trauma cycles? Do you want to learn distress tolerance skills for those moments where it feels like the overwhelming emotions you experience are a dangerous tidal wave about to crash around you? Have you discovered how overstimulating parenting is and need support? Do you need a creative approach to therapy and love the idea of gamifying your healing through D&D? Free consultations can be scheduled on my website.
I'm here for you, whether you're an adult or teen, new to therapy or experienced. Therapy should be a safe haven, an empathetic space where you can freely explore the things that hold you back. I strive to create an environment of authentic warmth, humor, and compassion, inviting you to courageously delve into all aspects of yourself in a safe space.
It's common to feel alone in your struggles, but you don't have to face them alone. With the right therapist, therapy can transform your life from tolerable to thriving. Let's work together to create a life that aligns with what you need. I offer online sessions on most weekdays; give me a call!. Your journey to personal growth and well-being starts now.
