Are you tired of feeling like you're constantly struggling to keep up with the demands of daily life? Do you find it challenging to stay focused and organized, no matter how hard you try? Do you find your frustration tolerance gets lower and lower with each day? Let's talk about it! Navigating the day-to-day stressors can be daunting! Understanding the unique characteristics of your brain and how it functions is crucial in navigating various aspects of your life. Through education, self-awareness, and professional guidance, you can learn to work with your brain's intricacies and develop coping strategies that suit your needs.
As a neurodivergent (ADHD & Autistic) counselor, I understand the unique hurdles you face, and I'm here to help. I believe that your ADHD/Autism is a part of you but doesn't define you. Together, we will uncover your strengths and build on them to create practical strategies for managing life's challenges and improving your overall well-being.
I commend you on the courage it has taken to get to this step. I recognize it may have not been an easy decision. Searching for a counselor can be overwhelming and I appreciate the time you have taken to consider me as your counselor. Please, feel free to reach out if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer them.

I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a primary approach to support my clients. Using CBT, we will examine the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. By gaining insight into these thought-emotion relationships, we can work towards changing unhelpful thought patterns and with consistent practice, create a positive shift in your emotions and overall well-being.
