Facing struggles in life can be scary for everyone! I believe that with the right tools and a deeper understanding of oneself, we can all move through life with more compassion for ourselves and others.

My ideal clients are neurodivergent adolescents and adults seeking clarity after feeling misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or overlooked. Many are high-masking or late-identified and have spent years compensating for ADHD, autism, or trauma, often leading to burnout. I specialize in structured, evidence-based diagnostic clarification to differentiate overlapping conditions and provide clear, affirming answers. From there, we develop individualized, practical treatment plans that support sustainable functioning and meaningful change.

We all face and manage many problems and challenges in our lives, but sometimes we feel stuck or confused about what steps to take. A therapist can be a thoughtful companion as you explore how and why you are feeling dissatisfied or lost. A therapist can also be an experienced guide as you make changes to improve your life.

Existing and attempting to thrive in traumatic times of uncertainty under oppressive social systems can feel incredibly daunting, especially if you hold identities that society marginalizes. Oftentimes, it’s our life histories, circumstances, environments, and relationships that lead to feelings of distress. Coupled with general life stress, it's no surprise that you might experience depression, anxiety, sadness, frustration, and anger associated with this. Rather than being “weak” or “not good enough”, you may merely lack the tools, perspective, or resources to cope. Fortunately, it’s not something you have to face alone.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
