You're struggling with anxiety, OCD, intrusive thoughts, or past trauma that's impacting your daily life. Maybe you've tried therapy before but didn't feel truly understood. Perhaps you're recently diagnosed as neurodivergent (ADHD, autism) and realizing how this shapes your mental health challenges—or you're wondering if neurodivergence might explain why traditional approaches haven't worked. You want practical, evidence-based strategies that actually fit your brain, not generic advice. You're looking for a therapist who gets it—someone who understands that anxiety, OCD, and trauma can show up differently for different people.
Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional with 20+ years specializing in anxiety, OCD, trauma, and depression for neurodivergent adults. I use evidence-based approaches (CBT, ACT, ERP, EMDR) to help you move from intrusive thoughts and overwhelm to lasting relief and confidence. Let's develop strategies that work with your brain, not against it.
Living with anxiety, OCD, or trauma while navigating a neurotypical world is exhausting. As a neurodiverse therapist, I understand personally and professionally. Relief is possible, and you don't have to figure it out alone. If you're ready to move from surviving to thriving, I'd be honored to work with you. You've already taken the first step.
