My ideal client is someone who wants to feel normal in their own skin and understood without having to translate themselves. They may be neurodiverse or still figuring that out. They might wrestle with anxiety, sensory overload, emotional intensity, or a sense of being out of step with the world. They want clarity, validation, and real tools that work for their brain and their life. I work with teens and adults 14 and up, creating a space where they can be fully themselves while we build insight, skills, and confidence together.
I am a generalist therapist with a strong passion for neurodiverse affirming care. I support teens and adults with anxiety, trauma responses, sensory needs, identity exploration, grief, life transitions, and skill building. I blend practical strategies with deeper emotional work, shaping therapy to fit you and the way your mind works.
Come exactly as you are. My office is a relaxed space where you can settle in, feel understood, and be yourself without pressure to perform. Virtual sessions are available case by case. If you feel unsure but interested, reach out. We can talk about what support might look like in a way that feels safe, personal, and truly yours.

I help clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, identity questions, and feeling out of sync with others. A treatment plan often includes understanding patterns, building coping skills, strengthening boundaries, and improving emotional regulation. Many clients feel more clarity and stability within a few weeks and continue to grow from there.
