I aim to create a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to participate in healing conversations. That space starts with trust and acceptance, no matter who you are and what you are going through. Whether you'd like to better understand your brain, work through past trauma, unpack shame, or strengthen your coping strategies, therapy can be a brave step toward overall wellness.
I specialize in working with individual adults (18+) in the areas of ADHD, AuDHD, Autism, TBI, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I am also experienced in helping clients struggling with identity/self-esteem concerns, chronic illness/pain, relationship issues, and LGBTQIA+ specific concerns. I practice through a neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-focused lens.
I work from a neurodiversity-affirming lens, and focus on each person’s unique experience. My hope is to help you understand your brain better, feel more at ease, and make changes that actually stick. I bring lived experience as someone who’s both neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+, and I strive to create a space where you feel genuinely understood.

One of my interest areas is working with neurodivergent adults, including those late-diagnosed or late-identified. Together we can unpack past challenges and address trauma/shame related to growing up in an environment not well suited to your unique needs, address co-occurring mental health concerns, and develop strategies/accommodations to help you live your most fulfilling life.
