Please note: I can only accept BCBS, Ambetter, Lyra, and self-pay. Humans are capable of immense strength and growth. Often, life can place limitations or obstacles in the way of achieving our goals. With the right support, one can overcome these opportunities, and what was an obstacle can become an opportunity for growth. As a gatherer of knowledge, researcher, and growth seeker myself, I find extreme joy in helping others attain a desire to grow into the best version of themselves. I utilize a neurodiversity-affirming strength-based approach in all my therapy.
Different brains are not stigmatized in my office. They are embraced. I have lived experience as a late-diagnosed autistic therapist and can help many individuals see how their unique brains see things through a different lens, not a broken one. I have specialized training in autism, ADHD, neurodivergence, substance use, addiction, and trauma.
My clients come from a variety of backgrounds. Many are seeking guidance through suspected diagnoses; others are seeking clarity of diagnosis already given. Many of these individuals are battling past traumas and negative coping mechanisms they have developed along the way. Each one shares a common goal of a desire to grow and understand themselves better.

Neurodiversity is my specialized focus, predominately Autism and ADHD. I utilize neurodivergent-affirming practices and have knowledge of various nuances associated with NA, such as PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance or Persistent Drive for Autonomy), Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), masking, late diagnosis processing, and autistic shutdown. I have authored a book on the latter.
