I help neurodivergent teens, adults, and couples understand themselves and practice new patterns for a more meaningful life. I take a gentle, relational, and experiential approach that helps you illuminate inner conflicts, deep wounds, and possibilities for growth. I offer neurodiversity and PDA-affirming parent coaching for parents parenting on "hard mode." And I support couples with attachment-focused couples therapy. I help couples identify the ways they get "stuck" and compassionately work through these challenges to repair and strengthen their bond.
I help clients who want to heal past trauma, improve regulation, explore identity and unmasking, and improve their relationships. I draw from multiple approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (attachment-focused work), EMDR (trauma reprocessing), Internal Family Systems (building self-compassion), and mindfulness of bodily sensations and responses.
I offer a genuine, collaborative space where all of you is welcome. I accommodate my client's unique nervous system. So feel free to sit on the floor, move around the room, doodle, or wrap up in a weighted blanket. If you’re curious about working together, I invite you to reach out for a free intro call. Come as you are!

I help autistic and neurodivergent clients navigate trauma and anxiety in ways that actually make sense for their brains and bodies. I often use EMDR, parts work, and an attachment lens to support processing, reduce distress, and make sense of patterns. Clients often notice feeling more grounded, less stuck, and more able to care for themselves in ways that work.
